Program Meetings

NNMHA holds frequent meetings featuring program speakers and Association news. The public is welcome to attend regular program meetings free of any charge.

Program Meetings and Coffee Chats

Program meetings are typically the last Wednesday of the month year-round and are usually hosted at a restaurant where we may share a meal and enjoy a presentation by local speakers. Location or date may change for holidays or occasions when we may benefit from arena demonstrations in lieu of a dinner program. Program meetings are free and the public is invited to attend.

Our Coffee Chats are held during the winter as a no-agenda, informal way to get together once a month to catch up on news with other members when weather may interfere with more outdoor pursuits. Coffee Chats are the second Tuesday at Big R in Santa Fe.
