nanciruthMemberI am new to Alki and would like to get to know more local adults through a book club format. Is anyone interested in forming a mixed or female only group for ages 50+? It would be fun to add a wine tasting each meeting as well

pattileaParticipantOh Mr Kootch, don’t be a kill joy!!!

nanciruthMemberThank you pattilea! I appreciate the support.

pattileaParticipantI will probably be interested too! Also, what day at CP coffee, also age range, and what is the book list? I am also 50.

nanciruthMemberIt looks like CP Coffee is wine tasting only; second Thursday at 6:00 PM. I am hoping to create something different combining both; so I assume it would need to be held in homes. I have generated a poster that I will take to the local coffee houses, see what interest there is and get a list going.

rwParticipantI mentioned this thread to my wife over dinner yesterday. Both of us would be very interested in a group interested in discussing good books and wine. Please add us to your list.

nanciruthMemberThank you for your interest! I have distributed a colorful poster around Alki and West Seattle and will keep you informed. This is my first blog experience; do I just contact you by updating the blog?

BonnieParticipantI wonder if West Seattle Cellars or Bin 41 would let you post a flyer?
July 23, 2012 at 7:37 pm #764331
nanciruthMemberhi, thought of the wine stores too! are you interested Bonnie. we have 7-9 so send me your email to nanciruth2@gmail.com

nanciruthMemberIt looks like we have a fine group that will benefit from the discussion of an array of literature while enjoying selections of appealing wines with West Seattle, age appropriate neighbors! A great way to start might be a “meet and greet” evening in a local social spot; wine shop or coffee house depending on the numbers. At that gathering, we can have an open discussion that will include everyone’s input on how to proceed. Please RSVP for the following date and I will get back to you with a final location and details:
What: WS Literature and Wine Club Meet & Greet
When: Tuesday, August 21, 2012
Time: 7:00 PM
Where: TBD
If you cannot attend on this date, but still want to join us in the future, just let me know. I look forward to meeting you!
