POTLUCK AND POETRY
Roses are red, violets are blue. Book Club is trying something new!
In a special Book Club event, we invite all members of Neighbors and Newcomers to a potluck and poetry evening at the home of Fran Malloy. Bring your favorite summer salad along with a poem to read aloud - or better yet, recite!
Please call or email fmalloy55@optonline.net by July 25th if you plan on attending our first poetry night.
As always, we welcome anyone who loves to read. Please join us for our discussion. Short of time? Consider books on tape and downloads to your iPod or MP3 player. Remember you can use your library card at any Fairfield County Library to check out this month’s selection.
