The virtual programs researched and set up by TTN have been a blessing during this time and truly changed my life.
TTN has done an unbelievable job providing us with wonderful zoom programs!! It definitely gives us something to look forward to during these difficult days. Thank you, Lindsay, and to all the people “behind the scenes” who put all these programs in place!
I honestly can't imagine the past few months without TTN!
I just want to say ‘thank you’ for all of the work being done to keep me connected. Because I live alone, the TTN events are especially appreciated.

Thank you for the sanity that you have provided during these difficult times. TTN has really been one of the heroes for our mental and physical well being.
All these new SIG groups are helping to alleviate my fears and anxieties, as I meet wonderful new women from the comfort of my home. Looking forward to the laughter.

"Great event. So nice to spend an afternoon outside with friends."
"Had a great afternoon. Would love more events under the tent even if I have to wear my long johns!!!!"
"This was my first ever Mahjongg Tournament. Claudia did a great job organizing it and explaining all the rules. It was a fun event for everyone. Can't wait to do it again. :)"
"I thought the event was well planned and well run. I was a bit nervous going in to this tournament as friends of mine said that ladies that usually participate in this are very serious and very good players. Being new to Maj Jungg ( have only played a few years) I was fearful I would be embarrassed by my lack of experience and slowness. Quite the opposite. Everyone was very friendly , some ladies were slower than I and I actually did well!"
"Great afternoon! A nice way to meet other members!"

"An eye opening video/conversation touching on different aspects of how women are still unequal in the eyes of the laws that we thought gave us equality. Wonderful presentation."
"Extremely informative and illuminating. Aside from the obvious wage inequalities, many other facets of life impacted by lack of equal protection under the law for women were explored."
"Very good film. Time should have been included for recent updates and discussion."

"The information and presentation about this important subject was very well done. As a native Long Islander I really enjoyed learning more and the exciting fact that a Street in my neighborhood is named for one of the underground families. Thank you. "
"It could have been longer since she had so much more material. Great idea for a future bus trip to visit the sites with guide."
"I found this presentation extremely interesting...seeing sites from this area and the role they played in the Underground Railroad. I thought the speaker was wonderful and interesting and I bought the speaker's book to read as well. Thank you for organizing this."
