When do we meet?

The Mission Viejo Chapter of HLAA meets bi-monthly, September – May, on the second Monday of the month. The Steering Committee meets on alternating months. There are no meetings in June and July. (See months and dates under Program below.)

Saddleback College offers two off-campus Lipreading classes that will begin the week of August 25, 2008. One is held on Monday mornings and one on Thursday mornings.

Directions

Murray Center is at the dead end of Veterans' Way (formerly Oso Viejo), which is 2 miles east of the #5 Freeway. Take the La Paz off ramp and go east, crossing Marguerite Parkway, and following La Paz for three lights. At Veterans' Way, go left, following the road by a large middle school. Veterans' Way ends at the Murray Community Center parking lot.

Parking There is plenty of free parking
Assistive Listening Devices

There is a good PA system in the room, and a wireless mike is used by the speaker and for audience participation. "Clear speech" is always encouraged. Captioning will be provided for meetings held in oversized rooms.

Invitation

Please come and join us. Socializing is from 10:30 - 10:45 a.m. before the meeting starts. Refreshments are provided.

There is an HLAA Literature Table. We send out over 100 flyers to every meeting for those who have attended meetings before and signed the sign-up sheet. New people may request a flyer, sent along with our business card (map), two weeks before any meeting.

There is no chapter newsletter.
