Purpose and Objectives

  • To provide a medium for the exchange of information and ideas.

Luncheon meetings, usually brown-bags, are held on the third Wednesday of every month, from 11:30am to 1:30pm. Meeting locations change each month as we use this as an opportunity for members to host networking and site visits. See Calendar for meeting dates and locations.
