Your Primer to Gettinng onto Zoom

With COVID-19 cancelling spring events left and right and keeping us cooped up in our homes, Grizzly Peak Fly Fishers is going to move ahead and continue its meetings to bring you, our members, the best possible programming. For some, Zoom is an already essential part of your workplace but for the rest of us, Zoom might as well be a book written in a foreign language. Here’s GPFF’s handy-dandy guide to getting onto our meetings for the time being and soon you’ll be able to see old friends and forget about the worries of the world for one evening.

Step 1: You will receive by email a link to that month’s meeting. Make sure you save this email or star it or add it into your calendar.

On the day of, be sure to click on the link. It will take you to a landing page on zoom’s website.

Step 3: You should see this screen now that zoom is open. If you are unsure you can hear or concerned your microphone isn’t working, click on Test Speaker and Microphone.

When ready, click Join with Computer audio.

If this is too daunting for some, or if you have a slow internet connection, click under phone call and it will provide a list of toll-free dial in numbers for your use. Step 2: This is what you should see. If you haven’t downloaded zoom, hit “download & run Zoom” If you get the popup above, hit Open Zoom. Zoom will automatically open up in its own window.
