Please let Celinda Crego know if you would like to join and/or host an upcoming meeting. Celinda can be reached at cac432@aol.com. Hosts are need for future meetings. Book Club meets the second Tuesday of the month. Remember, the host has the privilege of selecting the book. If you would like ideas, or input – that can be provided. A list of past selections is on the Cornell Club of Buffalo’s website (http://www.cornellclub-buffalo.org/book_club.shtml). We have found that books with a max about 300 pages, or less are best. In addition, the book should be easily available, hopefully at least some copies in the local library. As host, you select the book, provide a location to meet, and refreshments.
