Public welcome!

OOPS General Meetings are usually held on the last Wednesday each month. For health and safety reasons, our meetings are currently held online using Zoom. Members will be notified of the location when the decision is made to return to in-person meetings.

These meetings are a great way to meet other OOPS members and participate in some interesting presentations. Please check the OOPS Calendar for exact date and details on each meeting. OOPS General Meetings are open to members and non-members at no charge.

Recordings and information from past meetings can be found here: Past General Meetings
