Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Open the Contact Us page on the society's site and ask how to attend a meeting. The site lists no email address or phone number..
What to expect
Meetings run about two hours in the afternoon, and the site names guest speakers. The site does not say whether visitors may sit in or what a visit costs.
Tips for your first visit
- Ask the society whether visitors can attend, since the site does not say.
- The fall meetings are in Mantua, New Jersey, so plan the trip from Philadelphia.
- Check the meeting page before you go, since a September 2026 meeting was cancelled.
Newcomer welcome
Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The site lists meetings and member benefits, but it does not say whether visitors may attend or how a newcomer starts..
