Life Member Affinity Group (LMAG)- Pikes Peak Section

The Pikes Peak Life Member Affinity Group serves Pikes Peak area IEEE Members who have attained Life status by being a member for 35-years and being at least 65-years age.  Our in-person meetings allow networking with others with substantial life experiences which we share with interesting historical engineering and current engineering content.  With the current limited opportunities for in-person meetings, our focus has been on frequent LMAG Webinars which we share with others in Region 5.
