Everyone is Welcome to attend our monthly meetings

Join us from 6-8 PM on the 1st Monday of each month. The Meeting is held at the Grass Valley Veterans’ Memorial Building – 255 South Auburn Street in Grass Valley. We meet downstairs. Enter from the back parking lot.                                                                                                  

Club meetings consist of a brief update on current business, news, and board topics, followed by a general question-and-answer period open to everyone. We often invite a guest speaker who is announced in our club newsletter.  Join our lively question-and-answer session starting promptly at 6 pm, with refreshments, a brief business discussion, a raffle, and a great program.

We hold a raffle each meeting consisting of various items donated by those in attendance. Thanks to everyone who makes our raffle such an exciting and successful meeting. One never knows what will show up, which makes it so much fun! Keep the surprises coming. The August meeting is held at the Nevada County Fairgrounds, where we prepare our booth for the fair and follow with a BBQ Dinner.
