The Little Round Table (LRT) discussion group, part of the Tennessee Valley Civil War Round Table monthly program, meets every fourth Thursday, January-October, 6:30 PM, at the Huntsville Elks Lodge.
The LRT does not meet in November but does meet the second Thursday in December, same time and same place.
The LRT is not a lecture, but an in-depth discussion, facilitated by one of the LRT’s regular members. All TVCWRT Members and guests are invited to participate.
