Meetings of the Humanist Society of Metropolitan New York will resume in the Fall, following
the same second and fourth Tuesday of each month pattern. We will continue our presentations
of vital information on the human condition, locally and internationally, that is necessarily
of interest to concerned citizens and Humanist Activists.
The subjects and issues for discussion in September will be announced in this space. We
long-time members of the local Humanist group, which is a chapter of the American Humanist
Association, are greatly interested in building a core constituency for
future leadership and a new plan for promotion of this philosophy.
Hope to see you in September!
