Silent Book Club
Would you be interested in a book club without having to read specific books? Come to The Views Restaurant Wednesday, January 11, 2:30-3:30 PM, for SCOV’s monthly gathering of a Silent Book Club, a club about having a rollicking good time discussing books. Join us to chat, read silently and have some coffee or tea. After about 15 minutes we will introduce ourselves. If you want, start a conversation about what you love or hate about what you are reading. Feel free to join in. Take notes about what you might like reading next. To sign up, contact Peggy Smith at pdsaz@aol.com.
Items included in this section must be open to all residents and be either sponsored by the Association or be an annual club event of interest to the entire community. Check the website and “This Week in SCOV” for current information.
