WMCA Gatherings
Our meetings are open to the public. They’re a great way to find out more. The non-member fee for attending a gathering is $5.
We usually gather on the 4th Wednesday of each month at 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm in Northampton, MA. (See events listing.)
WMCA gatherings usually consist of networking time, a program presentation, WMCA announcements, and sharing of milestones and accomplishments. Discussions about WMCA business are saved for separate business meetings.
Your comments and ideas are always welcome and can be sent to our leadership group. (See leadership list below.)
