Hiatus for in-person events to continue through June 1st, 2021
TES Tuesdays online to continue indefinitely
Dear TES Members, Friends, and the Wider Community,
We would like to update you on what TES is doing to manage the ongoing COVID-19 situation. As we have previously announced, the TES Board of Directors has decided to postpone in-person events for the foreseeable future.
Given the information currently available, along with the positive responses we have received on our online programming thus far, the TES Board of Directors has voted to continue to hold all TES programming online exclusively until at least June 1st. While we are cautiously optimistic based on current trends, we are continuing to monitor the rollout of vaccines as well as case numbers very carefully during this critical period, and will resume in-person events only when it is both legally and ethically sound to do so.
In the meantime, we are thrilled to announce that thanks to the overwhelmingly positive response we’ve had to TES Tuesdays, our weekly online meetings, hosted by DatingKinky.com, we have decided to continue with this format indefinitely. This means that we will continue to host our weekly online class on Tuesday nights, even after it again becomes possible to hold events in-person again. To participate, simply visit https://datingkinky.com/TES-Tuesdays every Tuesday, at 7pm. No additional downloads or software required! This platform is supported by multiple browsers, but if you are having any technical difficulties please try a different browser, as certain settings may interfere. Note that this link will only be active during scheduled meeting times.
You are welcome to participate as actively as you are comfortable. By default, users’ cameras and microphones will be switched off, and you may simply watch passively or participate solely by text in the chat box if you are uncomfortable being seen or heard. Please note that while we have selected this platform to be as private as possible while maintaining sufficient ease of use for participants, no online platform is ever fully secure. While all regular TES rules regarding privacy remain in effect, and anyone caught violating these rules will be subject to consequences (please see our Online Meeting Terms of Service), we advise participants to treat online events as though the event is being recorded by a third party. For more information on protecting your online privacy, please see our online privacy guide.
Please watch this spot for updates on class announcements. We are excited to be able to continue our mission and engage with our community in these strange and difficult times.
We continue to advise everyone to stay safe and follow all guidelines issued by Public Health Officials. Please stay educated and up-to-date on any announcements from Health Officials as additional information and guidelines are issued. Stay safe, and we’ll see you all on the other side of this thing.
