Instructor: Senior Center Volunteer Location: Senior Center 1518 Downstairs Age Date 18 and up May 31-Jun 28 The Literary Seniors Book Group is interesting, informative, and intriguing! We meet once a week to discuss individual reading choices from fiction, nonfiction, classics, mystery, history, and current reviews. Whether you read from a book, an electronic reader, CD, or tape, join us to share your literary experiences. We are not an ordinary book club as we do not all read the same thing at the same time. This format is less expensive and more engaging than the typical style. Instructor: Senior Center Volunteer Location: Senior Center 1518 Downstairs Age Date 50 and up May 1-Aug 28 Music 59
