"Bringing the Book to Life" Recap.


It was A “small, but mighty” turnout of 16 who attended on March 18th, the first of two "Bringing the Book to Life" programs.

Actor Peter Renaday [see photo] did a wonderful reading selections from Rocket Boys by Homer Hickam, Jr., bringing many of us close to tears. We also had a brief discussion following the reading program.

I hope we have a better turn out for April 2nd. It’s a program worth seeing so please spread the word.

Thanks to Jody for the recap and if you, like I, want to attend the second "Bringing the Book to Life" program, join Peter Renaday and the rest of us on-
