How to Join

We recognize and value differences among our guests and members and strive to create a welcoming environment where each person feels respected. We are always happy to have guests at our Thursday morning networking meetings, and welcome you to contact either the president or a current member you know to request an invitation. As long as your industry is not already represented in the group, you will be invited to attend a morning meeting and your application for membership will be reviewed by the membership board.
