November update

To my Celtic Sisters

Decided to send off a Sheboygan County CWI Newsletter before I go to IBAM this weekend, because I might not get the reminder of our Book Club out if I don't.

The book club gathering will be on Saturday, November 19 at 2PM at Kate Herman's home at 501 Collins Street in Plymouth. We will be discussing Morgan Llewellyn 1916. If you haven't read it, come anyway. You might be tempted to read it after the discussion and there will be books to borrow. We will also be choosing the next book to be discussed. Kate would like it if you would email her at kaherman11@wi.rr.com or call her at 920-893-0937 to let her know how many to prepare for.

December 3, we will celebrate our annual Christmas Tea at the Plymouth History Museum in Plymouth. Mark your calendars and plan what special goodies you would like to bring along.

January 21 will the Irish Family Day at JMKAC (John Michael Kohler Art Center). Mark your calendars for that too. We have a marvelous opportunity to present ourselves to the public in a really great way.

Here are also a couple of Celtic events that you might be interested in taking part in.

1. The Redemptorist Retreat Center in Oconomowoc will be hosting a Celtic Spirituality Retreat called “Forgotten Glories of and Island” January 27 – January 29, 2012. I have a brochure but you can look it up on www.redemptoristretreat.org.
2. Peg Payne called me today to tell me that she recommends the movie, The Way, now showing at Marcus Theater in Sheboygan. If you look in our most recent Christmas Holiday book, the second story was submitted by Carol Rivero about Galacia. The Way of St. James is the local of the movie The Way. Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevaz are in the movie. She said the story is great and the scenery spectacular. I hope it stays around long enough for me to go.

So what do you think of all this snow. At least it is supposed to be quite pleasant this weekend when we will be traveling to Chicago and we don't want this mess.
