Cate Thompson writes: The Bearbrass Book Group is going strong, providing a great opportunity for members to meet, discuss and share ideas and opinions on a range of issues and topics that each book presents.Initially, some of us were a bit wary of how we would ‘take to’ reading books that were outside our normal choice of reading, but it seems that doing so has been a positive experience. With each member selecting one book of their choice, we have covered a diverse selection, creating a great platform for a wide range discussion.
The October meeting welcomed our newest member Sue Hoile, to bringing our membership to 8 active members.
Originally we were going to have a break from meetings in December and January, and re-convene in February 2021. However, the enthusiasm for our meetings has resulted in a general consensus to continue our monthly discussions over the traditional December/January break.
