This will be a good starting point for anybody interested in joining.\u00a0 Membership is free and children from 6 years of age and older may join.\u00a0 The group is lacking males 12-16 years of age and is looking to build up on the older group.\u00a0 Parents are encouraged to bring their children to join the group during these special sessions or to call ahead to get more information.
