When conducted in person, our meetings are open and free to the membership and the general public. Occasional video programs (repeat of a hybrid general meeting or other recorded presentations with speaker permission and, as appropriate, remuneration), for members only, will be announced in various forms, including on the home page and on the Members Only page.
Welcome some new presenters at our society as well as some old friends. Return to find out who will be joining us.
