Our organization is an informal group of members and friends of Saint Paul Lutheran Church.  The members include all people over the age of 50 who are eligible for AARP.   SPAM's meetings include social, religious, cultural and entertainment segments.  At the beginning of each year, individuals or groups of individuals choose a month  that they would like to be in charge of the program.  Each group then takes responsibility for all functions for that given month, including arranging for the guests , doing the promotion, and selecting the type of meal (brownbag, potluck, catered etc).
