We continue to plan meetings for calendar year 2026 and 2027,  and explore alternatives for meetings, events and venues.

We are planning dinners, but also exploring  possibilities of ZOOM meetings, lunch meetings, short cocktail discussion hours, and project days.   

These could be planned for Springfield and Decatur area venues, and also for other areas around our chapter area (33 Counties in Central Illinois).

We welcome input and comments from the members.
