You’re on!
A suggestion for the ping list, if I may.
Put it in alphabetical order.
I inherited the homeschooling ping lists and they weren’t in alphabetical order and there were a whole bunch of duplicate names. If someone thought they weren’t on when they were, you’d have to read the entire list to see. If they are alphabetical, then it’s FAR easier to find out if someone is on already.
And it’ll be easier to start it that way then to go back and rearrange it later. Trust me on that one.
