    For 2008, the meetings will be held on the second Monday of each month at 10:00 a.m. However since we are incorporating more hands on training into our schedules, we have to work within the schedules of our guest instructors. This means conflicts may force us to change some of the schedule. The best way to keep apprised of the meeting schedules is to check our Meetings section for the date, time, and location of meetings!
