Monthly General Meetings - Held on the first Monday of each month at Geneva Community High School, 416 McKinley Ave, Geneva (7 pm Socializing, 7:30 Meeting, 8:15 Program). General monthly meetings are not held in January or June. In May, the monthly meeting is our banquet and in December, it is the Holiday party. Both are still held the first Monday of the month. In July, the family picnic replaces the monthly meeting and is usually held on a different day of the month. Each meeting either has a topic for discussion or features a speaker who may talk on a variety of topics.
