Currently, Chapter meetings are scheduled for the first Tuesday of each month at 5:30 p.m.  

Each Fall, a nominating committee is formed with the purpose of developing a slate of Chapter candidates to be presented at the Annual Meeting the following January.  To facilitate this process, the following two forms have been developed, to be completed by the nominator (self-nomination is also welcomed), and the candidate, respectively.
