We offer informative, dynamic speakers by Northwest and national experts on the most important international topics of our time. Meeting monthly at the Thurston County Economic Development Council in Lacey, we are an engaged group of South Sound residents who meet to listen and discuss global issues in a friendly, non-partisan environment. Join us!
