Meeting Dates and Times for 2008

The meetings are scheduled for the fourth Wednesday of each month January thru November. There is no meeting held in December. Instead there is a Christmas Party held at a date to be determined.

The meeting is scheduled to start at 6:45 p.m. and ends slightly before 9:00 p.m. when the meeting adjourns and members migrate to a local eating establishment for after meeting dining and socialization. The meeting is usually held in the Clinic Room on the second floor of REI Inc. (However, we sometimes meet on the first floor on the North wall. Go to the left side of the climbing wall all the way to the far wall.)  Look for the room location notice at the bottom of the stairway near the climbing wall.
