Join us for a free event featuring the powerful documentary film "Join or Die".  "Join or Die", an award-winning documentary based on the research of the eminent social scientist Robert Putnam, asks three important questions:   What makes democracy work? Why is American democracy in crisis? What can we do about it? A discussion following the film asks if increasing membership and involvement with clubs and organizations will build community and ultimately help establish a stronger democracy?
