WHO
JOINS?
Anyone may
become a member. The only requirements are: an interest in French culture and
language, and a willingness to meet with others in a welcoming and relaxed
atmosphere of lively discussion. Members
vary widely in their ability to speak and use French. Some were born in
countries where French is spoken. Others studied French in high school or
college. Some learned the language while living in a French-speaking country or
serving in the armed forces. Still others are searching for their roots and
want to learn about the language and culture of their ancestors.
Consider joining our growing group of
francophones and francophiles of all ages.
