The Sandpiper Summer Book Club met Thurs., Aug. 14, in Flip Flopz. As
always, we had stimulating discussions of books we have read or are reading. We
also decided that we will continue the Informal Book Club (formerly known as the
Summer Book Club) this winter. We will meet on the third Wed. evening of each
month. It will be on the calendar.
