four chapters in the Tidewater area:
- 682 PENINSULA
Chapter 682 meetings are held on the second Monday of

- 1823 NORTHERN NECK

To share the driving burden among chapter members, meetings are held at various locations throughout the year (e.g. Northern Neck Electic Cooperative in Warsaw, Wicomico Episcopal Church, The Mooring Resturant in Kinsale, or the Kilmarnock Library.
In 2008, Chapter 1823 was transferred from Area VIII to Area I and is a fully functioning partner in all Area I endeavors. The Area I Vice President, together with the three Chapter
Presidents and six Area Coordinators, formed a Council of Chapters which
meet on a quarterly basis for the purpose of informing all concerned of
decisions reached at the latest VFC Board of Directors meeting and
discussing issues of concern in the Area I chapters. The meetings are called
and presided over by the Area I Vice President.
Area I is fortunate to have Marie Collins, a member of Peninsula Chapter
682, who conducts Pre-Retirement Seminars and recruits new members at local
government installations, health fairs and other venues. For additional
information concerning Area I activities, please contact one of the chapter
Presidents
or the Area I Vice President.
