Our
first meeting of December was held on Wednesday, the 3rd, and had 19
attendees, 7 of whom are FWA members. The feedback from the last
meeting with Dr. Ryan G. Van Cleve was overwhelmingly positive, and
we will ask him to return sometime in the future. We had one new
guest, and several of our winter residents joined us for the first
time this season as well. The security light in the parking lot was
out, and despite the best efforts of the Nokomis Fire Department,
obstinately refused to illuminate our parking area. Attendees solved
the problem at the end of the meeting with their car headlights until
everyone was underway.
We
had 12 readers, reading everything from poetry to first time memoirs
and ran out of time before our last two readers got to the podium.
They'll be at the head of the reader list on Dec 17th, to be followed
by our Christmas get-together. Readers were asked to bring light, or
seasonal material for the readings, and goodies and cookies to the
meeting. The firemen make short work of any leftovers! Any stocking
caps or old, ugly, Christmas sweaters will be welcome!
