We meet once a month from September to June. The programme is published three times a year, on this website and in hard copy. It is distributed widely in the north-western suburbs of Paris as CAMEO is of interest to English-speakers of all nationalities. As far as possible we seek to vary the day of the week on which we meet though this is not always possible as occasionally the day and date of a meeting depends on the availability of the speaker.

The timetable of each meeting is as follows: “doors open” at 12 noon; lunch starts about 1 p.m.; the talk or demonstration begins at 2 p.m. and we aim to finish at 3.30 p.m. We encourage everyone to arrive when they wish and to stay for as long as they can. There is an occasional variation - we sometimes have a coffee morning, starting at 10 a.m. These changes are shown in the programme.

The first meeting of the new season will be on Tuesday, 25 September, when we’ll be hearing more about events happening in our region and about other activities of interest. Our proposed programme for the remainder of the year includes such goodies as an introductory talk on NLP; a demonstration by Laura Eldoh of easy-to-make Christmas decorations; and musical entertainment by Carole Griffiths.

The setting for our CAMEO meetings is 19 ter allée de la Gare, Le Vésinet, home of Helen James, a member of the congregation of Holy Trinity Church. Helen’s generosity in allowing us to use her very comfortable home for our meetings enables CAMEO to be a successful and worthwhile venture.

See directions for a map showing the location of Helen’s home.
