Kick off this spring with the Heritage League's first regional social mixer of 2008. Meet and greet others in the heritage field from around the metro and tour one of the area's premiere house museums. Refreshments will also be served. All Heritage League members are welcome and encouraged to attend.

The Heritage League holds an annual meeting for members. The League's Board of Directors meets bi-monthly, each meeting hosted by a different historical agency in the community. Meetings are open to all League members and provide opportunities for those interested in preservation to visit area agencies and to tour behind the scenes.

Special membership meetings are also held for members to promote communication and networking among individual members. Examples include: "Jail Break," a social event hosted by the 1859 Jail, Marshal's Home and Museum in Independence; a barbecue dinner and tour of the Smokey Hill Railway Association rail yard preceded by an 8-mile ride on a restored train; "Meet the Authors" of regional history books on Kansas City Barbecue and The Irish in Kansas City; and a a tour of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum and Hall of Fame by Buck O'Neill and the American Jazz Museum at 18th & Vine.
