The Halifax Executives Association meets 12:15pm - 1:30pm for lunch each Thursday at the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron, 376 Purcell's Cove Road, Halifax.

Our luncheon meetings usually include a presentation by a Guest Speaker on a subject relevant to the interests of the members. [included in the membership fee] If you wish to suggest a Guest Speaker, please contact the HXA Program Coordinator.
Luncheons are by invitation only: potential members must be sponsored by a current member, and will be invited to attend a luncheon before applying. Lunches for guests other than guest speakers are $20 + HST.

During the summer months of July and August, HXA meets every second Thursday. 
Check the calendar below for exceptions, since we usually forego our weekly luncheon meeting when another HXA event is scheduled during that week.
