We were founded in 1990 as a regional chapter of Sisters in Crime , an international organization for people who love mysteries in support of women who write them.
Membership is open to everyone.
We do not meet in May or August. Members and their guests gather to hear mystery writers, private detectives, professionals from law enforcement agencies, and forensics experts describe their work and answer questions. A major benefit of membership is developing friendships among people with like interests. For writers, Sisters in Crime provides a network of support and information, both local and national. Other benefits include the opportunity to participate in national conventions at the Sisters in Crime booth.
