Next PVPA Meeting

The next regular meeting of the PVPA will be 7-9pm on Thursday, February 23, 2012 at the Quabbin Visitors Center (east from the route 202 / route 9 intersection, in Belchertown; look for Quabbin, Windsor Dam, State Police sign; turn north from route 9 onto the long paved access road). The entrance to the access road is almost precisely 3 miles east (along route 9) from the intersection of routes 202 and 9. The access road is about 1/3 mile long.

The subsequent regular meetings will be likely be held on March 29, April 26 and then on May 31, 2012.

Guests are always welcome at regular PVPA meetings.

Meetings are typically the last Thursday of each month, except for December and January (and occasionally November, when the November meeting moves to the first week in December to avoid Thanksgiving). (This is due to the holidays and the members-only annual dinner that is held in January.)

President — Donald David
