Proud to support Gunter ISD and Gunter Athletics!
This month the Club is reading “The Kitchen Front” by Jennifer Ryan. A positively delicious novel about four British women competing in a cooking contest during World War II. While The Kitchen Front goes down like a spoonful of sugar, Ryan manages to instill substance and plenty of food for thought in this creative and ultimately uplifting story.
