Chapter Meeting with Guest Speaker
October 3 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
All members, guests, and visitors are invited to the chapter’s monthly meetings. Each meeting starts with a potluck (dinner on us for guests and visitors), followed by a speaker and the business meeting. Each meeting location rotates among the three chapter counties, so check the calendar for individual meeting locations. We will try to specify meeting locations at least a week or two before each meeting. Meetings are open to the public. Please join us!
