Book Group Meeting - Saturday January 10 - Free Thinkers - Jefferson Humanists
Details
Sorry everyone! Somehow I deleted this posting while trying to draft February's announcement!
Join FROG, the Free thinkers Reading Opportunity Group, for the Saturday Janury 10 book group meeting from 2-3:30 PM.
In January we'll be discussing Ben & Me: In Search of a Founder's Formula for a Long and Useful Life by Eric Weiner.
Adapted from Goodreads:
New York Times bestselling author Eric Weiner follows in the footsteps of Benjamin Franklin, mining his life for inspiring and practical lessons in a book that’s part biography, part travelogue, part personal prescription.
Ben Franklin lingers in our lives and in our imaginations. One of only two non-presidents to appear on US currency, Franklin was a founder, statesman, scientist, inventor, diplomat, publisher, humorist, and philosopher. He believed in the American experiment, but Ben Franklin’s greatest experiment was…Ben Franklin. In that spirit of betterment, Eric Weiner embarks on an ambitious quest to live the way Ben lived.
Location: We meet in the Mills Building. The Mills Building is a separate building behind the Jefferson Unitarian Church (no affiliation), at 14350 W. 32nd Ave. Enter the parking lot and head to the back left (southeast) corner of the lot. Use the walkway between the church and the Mills Bldg to enter the Mills Bldg (on your left), and walk straight down the hallway to our room.
