The November meeting is to be held in-person at Second United Methodist Church, 1524 Western Ave., Knoxville, TN on Sunday, October 27, 2024. If you are not feeling well, please stay home. This meeting will not be on Zoom as Mark Reda is out of town and we will not have access to the cameras and microphones.

We must use this entrance ONLY for our meetings. This is at the request of the church. Please show your respect and appreciation for our wonderful meeting facility by fully cooperating.
