Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Email the club's executive committee in advance to say you plan to attend a member meeting; non-members are welcome at them..

Check with the group before you show up. You need to sign up first.

What to expect

Most meetings in 2026 are held on Zoom, and members get the invitation by email before each one. Non-members are welcome at member meetings if they email ahead, and the site does not list dues. Club events such as the block party and History Night are a lower-pressure way to meet neighbors, though some need an RSVP or tickets.

Tips for your first visit

  • If you are a member, watch your email for the Zoom invitation before the meeting.
  • The neighborhood listserv has posting rules, including no partisan or personal posts, so read them before you write.
  • Some club events need an RSVP or tickets, so check the event details before you plan to go.

Newcomer welcome

Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: Membership needs a home inside the club's area and a board vote, and member meetings need an advance email. Public events and the neighborhood listserv give a lower-stakes first look..
