EVENTS & 4-YEAR TRIP CALENDAR (Below Photo)
In addition to our group trips or rendezvous, there are various events held throughout the year in various locations. Usually the events are more regionally or locally determined and last for only a few hours or one day. For example, in Houston, Texas the 2007 annual Christmas party had about 50 local Amigos in attendance. In Los Angeles, California, dinner in the home of a member included a guest speaker and had over 40 participants. All members are welcome at these events, and if you travel often, be sure to check this site to see if an event is planned where you will be going. Official mailed invitations will be sent only to local members for localized events but invitations to group events and trips will be mailed to each member well in advance.
