SHORT STORY DISCUSISON GROUP

Plans for 2022

In 2021 The Lunch and Learn program changed its name to the

SHORT STORY DISCUSISON GROUP.  The time has not changed.  The group still meets on the third Friday of each month September through July at 11:45AM.

Due to the pandemic, we met via ZOOM.  We will stay on ZOOM in consideration for friends, who come regularly, and are immunocompromised.

Last year we read stories by current authors and others from an  earlier time. We read stories by American writers as well as stories translated from Yiddish and Hebrew. We will continue this plan in 2022.

Here is the plan: 

• At the beginning of each month (except for April) an email will be sent with the date and email address to RSVP and posted in the HADASSAH HIGHLIGHTS

•  When enough replies are accepted the story and the link for ZOOM (till we can meet at Temple Israel) will be sent to those who have replied

• Two days before the meeting the link to the ZOOM meeting will be resent

Please mark on your calendar the following dates:

Jan. 21, Feb. 18, Mar. 18, April – No meeting May 20, June 17, July 15

The schedule for the summer will be decided by the group in June.

PLEASE NOTE:

Guests are welcome even if they did not have a chance to read the story but, copyright guidelines prevent us from sending the story to those who do not reply. For more information, contact Amalia Warshenbrot or Linda Levy.
