The Fun Stuff
Being involved in the beginning years of OSA will be very rewarding for the ground breakers. This is your chance to have real input forming an association that fits your needs. The informal meetings rotate around various members’ homes serving coffee & cookies. The duration is usually around 3 hours with much animated, fun discussion promoting side-saddle. You can be involved as little or as much as you want with no special skills required. Come out & meet new friends with the fellowship of a common interest.
