Borrow a new book at Soup Dinners, T'ai Chi, & Town Meetings

RSVP on the sign in sheet at the Post Office, then join the town for participatory Soup Dinners on the first Friday of each month at 5:30pm. Bring a side dish or contribute an ingredient to Cashion's fabulous soups and salads when you can. The meals are funded, in part, by Healthy Communities Coalition (http://www.healthycomm.org/), and made possible by the volunteer labor of fabulous head chef Cashion Callaway, with help from Bonnie Brown, Sarah L, Kelly K, etc. and with dozens pitching in with set up, clean up, side dishes, etc.

When you're at the soup dinners, town meetings, or Ron's new T'ai Chi classes, feel free to borrow up to 10 books, periodicals, and films, and give it your best shot to get them back within 3 months.
