DAH's 2011 Annual Meeting was held Saturday, January 22, at the Kirkwood Highway Public Library.
Alan Palmer, James Presley and Glen Schmiesing were reelected to the DAH Board.
We have an on-going series of informal discussions on the Third Saturday of each month
at 5:00 pm at the Dead Presidents Bar & Restaurant, 618 N Union St Wilmington DE.
Our lecture/discussion series co-sponsored by Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of
Newark (UUFN) and the Delaware Association for Humanism (DAH) meets at 3:00 pm on the
second Saturday each month at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Newark, 420
Willa Road, Newark DE 19711 (unless otherwise posted).
This series offers a philosophical examination of a wide range of questions in ethics and
value theory, with an accent on individual choices. The program
will allow an hour for discussion with
drinks and snacks provided. Donations are welcomed to help defray expenses.
