April

Science On A Sphere
 Nurture Nature Center
Saturday, April 13
10:30 am

The Program Committee is announcing a change in the date of our April program: It was to be at Nurture Nature on April 20th. The new date is one week earlier, April 13th, still at Nurture Nature, 518 Northampton St, Easton. 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Our member, John Cosgrove, is a docent at the Nurture Nature Center and has set up this experience with Science on a Sphere especially for us. Everyone is welcome, as usual, and it will be a great                 introduction to this unique resource in our community. 

https://www.nurturenaturecenter.org is the website which has information and a link to sign up for a bulletin with an up-to-date listing of events.

Free parking is available behind the building on Pine Street, although there is no rear entrance, so that a trip around to the front on Northampton Street will be necessary. We suggest carpooling, as this is a busy time in downtown Easton. However this is also a good time to visit the Winter Market on Northampton St. or find a treat for lunch at the indoor Market.

March

International Aid Organizations
Speaker: Patricia Price
7 pm, March 19, 2024
Palmer Library

Our March meeting, to be held at Palmer Branch of the library at 7:00 p.m. March 19, will feature a presentation by Patricia Price, focusing on philanthropy, in particular, her work with Buddhist Global Relief as a founding Board member, now Deputy Director, for international aid focused on Food, Children’s Education and Women’s livelihood trainings. 

Please join us to welcome Patti, who, I know, is a longtime friend to many in our group and to learn about effective aid, both local and international.

February

One Read
Saturday, February 10, 1 p.m
Palmer Library

Whether or not you have had a chance to read this book by February 10, you are welcome to join the discussion. “As Louise Aronson says, ‘Life offers just two possibilities: die young or grow old.’ This searing, luminous book is for everyone who hopes to accomplish the latter and remain fully human as they do. It will challenge your assumptions and open your mind–and it just might change your life.”–Lucy Kalanithi, MD, editor of When Breath Becomes Air.

We look forward to seeing and hearing from you and sharing tea and goodies.

January

April 23, 2024 is the Primary Election. The last day to register two vote is April 8th. There is time to request a mail in ballot which makes voting very easy. Click here to find out more information on how to vote in this upcoming election.

There is no program scheduled for this month. What does that mean? Time to play! Make snow angels, build a snowman, read a book not on your book group list, the possibilities are endless.
