All members are invited to join.  All participants must be members of AAUW.  For more information call Rosemarie Palmer at 540-237-4655 (leave a message).

The “Diversity Book Club/Discussion Group” will meet (via ZOOM) on the third Thursday of the month at 3pm.

===============================================================

The “Great Decisions” Book Group was formed by Laura Zarrugh in 2016.  Nationwide it has a long-standing history.  Discussion topics and essays are published by the Foreign Press Association annually.  Topics are determined by a survey of participating members.  A member facilitator is selected for each topic.  Cost of the briefing book was $32 for the 2019 edition.  The Great Decisions 2022 edition will be published on 1 January 2022, at which time the cost will be revealed.  Members may bring guests to these discussions.  Meetings will be held via ZOOM during the pandemic, on the 4th Wednesday of the month at 1:30pm.
