When you make notations in your calendar to attend the various study groups entered on our website calendar, please check carefully for the exact day of the week, place, and time.Several of the facilities we have consistently used in the past have received grants for renovations, and we occasionally use other locations to continue to offer certain study groups. This is an ongoing situation with the libraries and will continue for some time.
We try to alert you where there is a change at each calendar entry, but want to stress that you check carefully so that you go to the right location on the right day and at the correct time.
Unfortunately, this is beyond our control, and we are trying to make it as convenient as possible. Please bear with us as we manage this juggling act, and continue to enjoy the various programs offered.

Suni Fay, Museum Trip study group leader, needs our help!
I am looking for new ideas for museum trips. I have been doing these trips for 13 years and am almost out of NEW ideas. Anyone with ideas of where to go either in NY, NJ or Conn. would be greatly appreciated.
Also, it would be nice if there was someone in the organization who would be willing to be a backup for me if I can’t go on a particular trip. (So far this has only happened once in 13 years). Click here to request my phone number, and call me with your ideas and/or offer to help.
Thanking the membership in advance. Suni Fay
