Meetings and Membership

Monthly meetings take place the second Tuesday of each month at 7:00 P.M. Meetings are held at various locations in Cedar Rapids, as their regular meeting location was damaged in the flood. Check the 'Recent News' section for information about meeting locations.

The cost of membership is $10.00 a year. We accept members globally. Dues go towards preserving our cherished Czech heritage.
