It’s up to each group how often to meet, and when to meet. The Amelia Island Genealogical Society will support you in your interests, setting up these groups, and getting the word out to the membership. These groups are for members only! It’s one of those benefits of membership we like to talk about on the website. Each SIG sets their own dates and time for meetings, how frequently they meet, and whether to meet in person or virtually.
