| Ainsley House tour guide, May 2005. |
We meet monthly for events such as lectures, picnics, and historic house tours, just to name a few of our activities. Four times a year there is a large event, often with a presentation or theme. Many of our members enjoy dressing up in vintage or historic reproduction clothing, however this is not required for membership.
