Adult Choir
The adult choir rehearses for approximately 1 hour weekly and
performs at all services one weekend per month. No previous experience
is necessary! Choir members enjoy being part of a musical community;
they are not required to read music or have any vocal training.
Rehearsals focus on choir music to be presented at the next month’s
services; music is selected both for its musical and spiritual
content. Interested singers (adults or youth in grades 7 and above)
are welcome to visit any Tuesday night to sing with us and explore the
possibility of joining the choir.
Tuesday nights * 7-8PM * Main Hall (See the Order of Service for announcements regarding weeks off)

Men’s Group
This group gathers in the homes of members for
the chance to talk in a deep, meaningful, and personal way. To
facilitate the goal of intimacy the group has established a few ground
rules: no alcohol; no talk about professional sports; no talking about
men who are in the group but not present, and the confidentiality of
the conversation that is shared in the group.
Third Wednesday evening of the month in members’ homes.
Other meetings may happen on another day of the first week at a host
home or the Fellowship. There is a traditional Winter Retreat and a
newly added and less structured Summer Retreat at the end of July.

UU Book Club
A monthly discussion of a fiction or non-fiction
book of modest length. Books are chosen by members on a rotating
basis, not with an eye to what the others’ usual interests are, but
with an eye to what the selector thinks would be good for the others to
read. (We avoid non-fiction books of a detailed, technical nature
accessible only to specialized readers.) Members agree to make an
honest effort to completely read books selected, and usually end up
saying “thanks, I never would have read that on my own.”
Third Thursday * in members’ homes, but occasionally at the Fellowship
