Coordinator: Richard Bronakoski
Purpose: Our primary purpose is to have a fun and engaging discussion about the book selected for the month.
Responsibilities: Everyone is invited to participate. We select the books for the year by voting at our November meeting. Titles may include fiction and nonfiction. The only condition is that the recommended books must be in print and readily available. The member who makes the recommendation becomes the discussion leader if that book is selected.
Meeting Place and Time: 6:30 PM in our Yuuth Room on the last Sunday of the month.
