October Monthly Meeting Details!

Join us on October 15th for another Informative Meeting!

Our Meeting Time is 1:00pm to 3:00pm

We meet on the Third Tuesday of every month and the Public is always Welcome!

"Our Speaker will be Andrea Kautz!"

Andrea Kautz is an entomologist at Powder Mill Nature Reserve.

She will tell us about bugs, but I don't think she will bring any along.

Her main work involves collecting and imaging aquatic macroinvertebrates for a National Science Foundation-funded project aimed at building the macroinvertebrates website to aid in the identification of aquatic insects and other arthropods used in water quality monitoring.

As always, the Public is invited to attend our meetings, so please stop in for some interesting information! 


Friends and neighbors are welcome to join the membership.

The ringing of church bells in a quaint town square sets the scene for Joy to the World. Evoking the revered holiday nostalgia of hometown America, our stage transforms into a small town winter carnival brimming with family, friends, and entertaining elves. Awe-inspiring music and dance, phenomenal voices, and light-hearted holiday humor are the ingredients for this holiday extravaganza!

This year’s all-new holiday show features your favorite seasonal and sacred Christmas songs – songs brought to life by marvelous vocal talent from across the country, accompanied by our masterful AMT Orchestra.
