Division 8 will be holding another meeting on November 18, 2023, at 10:00 A.M. It will occur at the new home of the Golden Isles Model Railroad Club. There will be several clinics and a Show-n-Tell table. The Division will provide lunch for attendees, thanks in part to funding from the Southeastern Region. Afterward, there will be time to explore the club's layout. The Georgia Coastal Railway and the Florida-Georgia Railway Heritage Museum are nearby and open to 6:00 p.m. We hope to see you there.
