ACTIVITIES/INTERESTS

Our activity and interest groups span the entire spectrum of possibilities. Some are mostly inside, others are mostly outside, and some are a lively combination of both. If members don't find their particular interest represented, they are invited to start another group; the more the merrier!

We've listed a few of the groups below, but remember: this is just a small sample.
