CTRC Calendar

CTRC meetings are open to members and non-members.  You are welcome even if you are not a member.

We usually have a short (30 minute) discussion of status of the various projects followed by a program.

We meet inside the Santa Clara railroad station itself (you may have to slide one of the sliding doors open to find us.)  In the winter be sure to bring a coat - it can be a bit cool inside the station.

Date: First Monday of each month.

Time: 7pm

Location:
   Santa Clara Railroad Station
   1005 Railroad Avenue
   Santa Clara, California
