Where the Waterfront Gathers

Our membership meets every month except July and August.  Most are lunch meetings, each with an interesting guest speaker from the community.  Our annual meeting is always in June.  We host a golf tournament, a gumbo cook-off, and several parties during the year.  Please see our Events & Meetings page for details.
