Book Club is the third Thursday of each month (Sept.-May) 4:00 in the Stirling Room. Our opening meeting will have a guest author. Kelsey Payne (Director of Catering AAC) sister is an author, and we will be reading one of her books, Still Waters by Lindsay Brackett. The story takes place in Edisto, SC and we will have the opportunity to ask Lindsey (and Kelsey) what is fact and what is fiction. Copies of the book are available in the Stirling Room under the TV along with a copy of each of the books we will be reading. Please remember

to sign out the books and return them in a reasonable amount of time. These books can be found in the Ladies’ Locker Room.
