General Meetings
Typically we have 4 general meetings per year. General meetings are free and open to the public. They are programs on some aspect of local history. Due to Covid 19 restrictions, especially because we serve a particularly at risk population, we have suspended our general meetings. We will continue to monitor the situation and will start meeting again once it is safe to do so.
