WE'RE MOVING

 

Starting in September, the Round Table will hold its monthly meetings at the Atlanta History Center. After surveying the members and considering the various options, the Executive Committee determined that the History Center is most convenient for our members and will enable us to provide you the best experience at a lower price than we are currently charged. We will send more information as the date of the change approaches.
