The Explorers Club of Pittsburgh holds its general membership meeting at 7:30 p.m. on the second Thursday of each month. Immediately following the business meeting we customarily conduct a presentation of travels and adventures of members (sometimes an informational session or demonstration). The meetings are open to the public. All current and prospective members are most welcome!
All ECP meetings will be available on as videoconference (Zoom): https://bit.ly/ecp-zoom
