Each member owns an equal share and an equal say on the purchase or sale of its stocks. We teach its members to be more knowledgeable and successful investors by researching stocks and learning to evaluate their potential within their industry group as affected by the national and world economies. Socially, we hold two annual club-financed brunches at the Towers Restaurant and a private offsite annual dinner. The highlight of each meeting is a presentation by our professional advisor. Meetings are generally held on the second Thursday of the month. The club has been in continuous operation the last 12 years and is a member of the National Association of Investment Clubs. Membership is limited by its Charter to 35 people, a number we are fast-approaching.
