One of the best ways to meet wonderful people is to join an AFAN Interest Group. If you have a hobby, we probably have an Interest Group for it. If you’d like to learn a new skill, look for an Interest Group to get started.
Sign-up happens at the Fall Reception in September, or you can join by contacting the chairperson of the group.
(List will open in a separate browser window)
If you don’t see the interest you are looking for, let us know and we’ll see about getting a new Interest Group started. With nearly 300 members, there is bound to be someone interested in the same things you are.
