The following table contains the currently existing Shared Interest Groups within SIMS. Shared Interest Groups are another way to nurture practice and develop friendships within the larger SIMS community. Interest groups do not require facilitators and are usually more informal than KM groups. Each Interest group depends on a contact person to handle information about meetings. If you have a hobby or activity that you would like to share with other SIMS attendees, such as seeing movies, taking hikes, sewing quilts, or kayaking, please consider organizing an Interest group. To find out if other meditators are interested in your topic, please contact the Shared Interested Groups Coordinator, Pamela Johnson.
