Three meetings are held annually in Region 7. 

Spring and Fall meetings are hosted by local clubs throughout the region. Often the spring meeting includes a garden tour. Judge's training and a banquet are also often highlights. The annual February Potluck is a fun meeting, usually held at Henry Horton State Park, Chapel Hill, Tennessee. Complete details on these meetings are available in The Irisarian.
