Meetings and Programs
A great way to get to know our chapter is to attend one of our meetings. You don't need to be a member to attend! Meetings are held monthly from September to May at different locations, days and times in the Middlesex County area in order to accommodate the varied schedules of our members. If you have a preference for a specific day and/or time, please tell a board member. Meetings are open to Jersey Blue and C.A.R. members, prospective members and guests. There are many ways to get involved in our chapter, so we encourage you to find whatever activities best suit your interests and abilities. Other events or programs are added throughout the year, so please check back for updates!
