Meeting #19 will be held at Maegen and my house (54 Morse Place) on MONDAY, April 7rd at 7pm. We will have two topics: 1) a beer and cheese pairing tasting. 2) gathering school supplies to help students in Sudan.
#1 - Beer and Cheese. Ross (although he does not know it yet) and I will work out appropriate pairings for beer and cheese. This should be really fun - at least for me, because those are two of my favorite things. Check out two articles from a recent seven days: #1, #2.
#2 - At our last meeting we discussed the logistics of a children's book drive. While we could do this - the need is not pressing and the effort seems to be more than we are ready to put in. One of our new members (and old friend) will be traveling to Sudan with a group of Vermonters to help create new schools in a war torn region. They need some basic help gather supplies. Sounds like a good idea. Annie will be on hand to talk about the initiative (in between the beer and cheese). Check out the article from the free press. Things to bring:
- Backpack
- A calculator
- A pencil sharpener
- A three-subject college ruled notebook
- 10 black or blue ink pens.
- 10 No. 2 pencils.
* we'll plan on how we raise the rest.

I was all set to show up Tuesday April 1 2008 (as Nancy and David are still in Florida with the Grand parents) I was going to bring a cheese from Boucher Farms (my local current favorite) and as for beer and cheese that has never been good to me (I prefer the vine)...not certain that I can make it as I am away this weekend at a Slap Shot reunion in Boston, where we play the alumni team (by the way Jay can I borrow your pants pads again?) I will try to drop by with the back pack goodies.
