Special Interest Groups

Special Interest Groups are one of our member benefits.  There is no cost to be part of any or all of these groups but you do need to be a SMCGS member.  Not a member? Click here to join now.

Groups work together to share their knowledge, resources and questions to help one another in their research.  Groups often take a break in the summar and during December.  Feel free to email us if you have any questions. You can also check our calendar for current meeting dates.
