Interest Groups

Interest groups provide opportunities for Guild members to form new friendships and build stronger bonds with longtime friends while participating in shared interests.

Some groups meet in the daytime while others may meet in the evening.  The type of group is only limited by the willingness of a member to coordinate the group.  We are always looking for new things to do and ways to share our interests with one another.  If you have a general question about an existing or new group, send us an email.


Rowdy Readers Book Club

This group meets on the fourth Thursday of each month in the daytime for a lively and informative discussion. The group alternates between in-person and Zoom meetings. Books are selected based on recommendations from group members. Traditionally, lunch at a nearby restaurant follows the meeting.

Coordinator: Laura Lynch

Adventure Group

Each month, we gather for an adventure that has included kayaking, walking and hiking, tours of parks, backstage at the theater, tours of the Harn and Cade Museums, and cooking demonstrations.  The sky is the limit for this group!
