We invite all retired staff to join us for AHRSA luncheons. This is a great opportunity to connect with friends and enjoy interesting programs.

AHRSA luncheon meetings are held on the third Tuesday in September, October, April, and May at the Greenhaven Golf and Banquet Center, 2800 Greenhaven Road, Anoka.

All meetings include a served lunch ($16 fee, which includes tax and tip and is paid at the door), a program (including speakers, entertainment, and music), a short business meeting, and time to visit with friends and colleagues. Registration begins at 11:30 a.m. and lunch is served at noon. The program begins at 1:00 p.m. Spouses and friends are always welcome at the luncheons - just be sure to make a reservation for them.

Past members will either be called or receive an email about two weeks before the scheduled meeting to make a reservation.  Note: If you make a reservation but do not show up, you will still need to pay for your meal, as we reserve with a guaranteed count.

If you are not contacted by phone or email, or if you have questions or need additional information, contact President Lynn Montgomery at 612-670-8281.

As an organization, we want to have a presence in the community. Therefore, at each meeting, we will provide an opportunity to make a donation to a community cause.

AHRSA members come together for more than just lunch. AHRSA works to make a difference in the community by supporting various causes and organizations, such as the Anoka County Christmas Committee and Anoka County Library Project Bookshelf.

In past years, AHRSA has also collected food items, which were then donated to the Anoka County Brotherhood Council (ACBC) Emergency Food Shelf.

Consider volunteering to help AHRSA in the following ways:

President-elect.
Secretary.
Historian.
Sunshine Chair.

Talk to Lynn Montgomery at 612-670-8281 or any board member to inquire about any of the above opportunities.  AHRSA would love to have more people take on active roles in the organization!

Members of AHRSA meet in a number of informal coffee groups.  Check this page periodically for a listing of dates.

Wilson Elementary School at Billy's Bar and Grill, 214 Jackson St. in Anoka, on the first Wednesday of every month at 11:30 a.m.
