Tech Tip - Find a Time + Doodle

 Google Calendar has a great embedded feature called "Find a Time". It's a great way to look at all members' availability side-by-side as you're identifying meeting times. https://youtu.be/iJ5wDzMOaL0

Alternatively, you can use a free resource called Doodle. You create slots and have people sign up for what they are available for. Go for the meeting with the most votes. https://youtu.be/ydmOdaSnwI8
