The Great Lakes Chapter History:
The Great Lakes Chapter was founded in 1949; it was one of the first Chapters that began sponsoring regionals.
The majority of Chapter members live in the tri-county metro area, but a number live in central and northern Michigan. Members have diverse horological interests. The Chapter holds four Sunday afternoon meetings in the Metro Detroit area including a holiday meeting, plus an “All MI Meeting” in more south central Michigan (encouraging participation from members other MI chapters). Chapter meeting admission is $5.00 per couple.
The Chapter meetings give members the opportunity to get together and share their interest in horology, have a mini-mart, and offer workshops, presentations, demonstrations, videos, or Show and Tell. Light refreshments are served.
After the chapter meeting, members usually enjoy an early dinner at a local restaurant.
Chapter dues are $5.00 per year for email newsletter or $10.00 for paper newsletter. The increased dues for paper newsletter cover the printing and mailing costs. Newsletters are emailed or mailed out approximately 3 weeks before the upcoming Chapter meeting.
