Breakfast Club

The Capital District Environmental Breakfast Club is an informal group of environmental professionals that meets monthly to discuss current environmental issues. Each meeting features a speaker on a topic of interest, a regulatory update, and an open forum.

The Environmental Breakfast Club meets on the first Friday of each month at the Holiday Inn Turf on Wolf Road in Colonie, New York except in July, August and December. Meetings start at 7:30 a.m. The cost is $15 per person which includes a full breakfast buffet.

Help us make sure we have enough seats! Please make a reservation, and if your plans change and you can’t make it, let us know.
