Ginger would like to post a short article to the web site inviting anyone in the park to join the newly formed book club that was established earlier this month. Ten women and one man, Charlie Currey, gathered at the clubhouse for the purpose of starting the club. If anyone is interested in joining the club, the next meeting will be on Monday, March 9, 2009 at 7:00 pm. It was decided to hold the meetings on the second Monday of every month at 7:00 pm.
The first book selected for this month is "Stubborn Twig" by Lauren Kessler, an Oregonian author. The story is about three generations in the life of a Japanese American Family to include their internment during WWII.
"Salt in our Blood" by Michele Longo Eder, a Newport resident known to many, was then selected for the month of April. Michele's father, Joe Longo, was a resident here in the park and an avid fly fisherman. The LVH Fishing club honors his memory and the values he stood for by each year presenting a plaque in his name to the club member that has excelled in his or her service to the club and our community. Michele is an attorney and the wife of a local fisherman. "In 2000 Michele Longo Eder began a journal to record what daily life was like for her while her husband and sons were out commercial fishing. But personal tragedy struck just before Christmas 2001. This book is an offer of healing to her family, her community and to fishing families everywhere." Ginger and I have both read the book and found it to be excellent.
All are welcome and should anyone have any questions, please do not hesitate to give Ginger a call at 574-1864.
Thanks Ron.
