Book Night Change

Hello Ladies
Laura W has requested that we change book night as she has an appointment that night every month.  I too have found that Lyndon and I have Roundtable that night and was going to have to start coming less as well.  I would like to propose that we keep it as it is for November and discuss whether a change would be possible for future dates.  If you vehemently disagree let me know, if not we will plan on discussing a change at Laura C's.  Thanks.  Heather

Attention: Scholars

Hey Scholars
I need to change our time to meet so that we can be outside part of the time with some light.  I want us to meet at 6 pm (eat before you come though we are just having treats).  We are going on a little field trip so wear walking shoes and a jacket since we will be outside.  Please be on time, we will be leaving my home no later than 6:15.  I look forward to seeing you all.  Heather

Attention: Scholars

Scholars mark you calenders for scholar club next week.  Thursday, October 27th at 7:00 pm.  I hope all of you have been really thinking about the goal you want to set for the next 9 months.  Please write it on a index card and bring it with you that night.  I also want to encourage (though it is not required) you to read the book Do Hard Things.  This book discusses much of what I plan to talk about with you guys this year.  It is not required, but there is a treat involved for those who do read it.  I have a copy and am willing to share if you want it. I look forward to seeing you all.  Heather

Oops! The correct date for October book club is:

THURSDAY, OCT. 13

Yay! that means I can come!
7:30 p.m.
Garland's house
(1575 S. Brooklyn Rd. Monroe)
Those coming from N. of Monroe--go to Elsinore, take Brooklyn Rd. from there follow it South all the way 10 min. or so until you get to 1575 . Garland's house is on the East side of the road.
If you are in Richfield and want to carpool--call me 896-8569.

We will keep Book Club the 2nd Thursday of every month.
I'm going to resume posting the book clubs on the blog instead of Lisa. We decided that was something I could do to lighten her load.
Thanks, everyone!

Book Club Thursday

Book Club is coming up...
Hope you are enjoying this great read...

Seven Miracles that Saved America

I will not be there. Brandon and I will be in Boston doing the Freedom Trail for our 14th anniversary. What a great book to get us in the patriotic spirit.
