JOIN US!
We meet from noon–1PM on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month at the Richmond Hill City Center. Visitors and prospective new members are always welcome.
Membership is a great way to get involved in making Bryan County a better place to live, stay up to date on current area events, network with others of similar interests, and develop your own leadership skills.
Help us make a difference with fundraising, too. Here's just a few things we do:
- Annual School Calendar
- Casino Night Fundraiser
- Pinwheel Garden for Child Abuse Prevention Awareness
Our operating expenses are paid by member dues, so all net proceeds from fundraising events go to support various community projects. Dues are currently $150 per quarter, one of the best bargains available among all civic and service organizations. Learn more about the benefits:
