LTAV regions conduct meetings where infomation on various areas of our work are discussed and presented. Meetings include demonstrations, guest speakers, discussion forums and always an opportunity to chat with each other.
The LTAV list-serv is vital and well-used for the exchange of information between members and is a forum for problem solving on a day to day basis.
