We’re sorry to inform you that the MARCH Repair Workshop planned for February 7–8, 2026 at the InfoAge campus is being canceled. Even though the big snowfall that hit the area was more than a week ago, the persistent freezing temperatures have kept a surprising amount of snow and ice in place... especially in the areas needed for safe public access to the Workshop space. Since InfoAge relies on volunteer staff, and this particular accumulation has been unusually tough to clear, there’s still too much snow and ice covering the areas and paths needed for parking and pedestrian access to the Workshop room. As a result, we’re making the call to cancel the Workshop as a safety precaution. The good news is that we fully expect everything to be cleared or naturally melted well before the next scheduled Workshop on March 21–22, 2026. Thanks for your understanding, and apologies to those who had already signed up. We look forward to seeing you in March. Jeff Salzman VCF/MARCH Workshop Manager VCF Steering Committee
