Our next General Meeting is
Monday January 24 at 7:00pm
Our guest speaker will be Gwynne McIntyre who will share with us her experience as a worker and educator at the Duke Lemur Center (https://lemur.duke.edu). Gwynne is going to give the inside story on this remarkable center and its inhabitants, especially the exotic and beautiful lemurs.
