You are welcome to join us 

If you agree with our mission statement and would like to join a vibrant group of active women, we would love to have you share your time and talents with us.

Our local chapter includes about 100 members who work together in a spirit of cooperation and friendship. We connect women in our community with each other to share friendship, knowledge, resources, and networks in order to strengthen communities locally and globally.

We share our knowledge and friendship through our specialized interest and service groups. Twenty groups provide opportunities to develop bridge skills, learn mah-jongg, discuss books, sing, advocate for social justice, enjoy food with others, join in exercises, ski with others, learn local history, join the current issues group as well as the genealogy group, and take part in the travel talk group.
