 I
wanted to remind everyone that the deadline for membership dues is April
15, 2001. I will need 10
dollars from everyone who wants to participate in the April 21, 2001 club
meeting. We will have a
surprise author at our meeting and a signed book will be passed out, but
you cannot have a book unless you pay the fee.
If you have any questions, please come talk to me before the
deadline.
All seniors who want
credit for their volunteer hours at Silvercrest Nursing Home, reading to
the elderly there, you need to turn in the form I gave you at the last
meeting A.S.A.P.!!!

Everyone needs to
be thinking about what we should read for our final book of the school
year. There are so many good
books out there to read. At
our last meeting it was suggested that we read poetry from different poets
for a couple of weeks. If we
read the poetry then we will have to choose a short book. I was thinking we should do something fun and relatively
easy because all of you will be busy studying for finals.
If you have any suggestions for our end of the readings, for poetry
or a novel, please turn them into the suggestion box in my room for the
Literary Club. I will e-mail
suggestions that I receive, to all of you, and I will base my final
decision on your input. If
you want your say, turn in your suggestion to me by the end of the week.

I
told the Library that the Literary Club will volunteer hours to work
during the book fair next week. This
is an optional event. If you
work 2 hours at the book fair you will be allowed to choose one book at
the fair with a value of 15 dollars or less.
I think this is a very good deal.
If you would like to participate, there is a sign up sheet on my
door. I also thought this
would give you an oppoutunity to browse new books.
 It should be sunny
on Saturday. Anyone who wants
to can meet me at Mansfiels Park for a poetry reading at 7 P.m. It will last about an hour.

Anyone who wants extra credit has an opportunity to earn 30 extra
points in your English class. I
spoke with all the English teachers and if you want to write a paper/book
report about the book we read for last month, you can turn a 4 page, in
depth, typed paper to your teacher by April 28, 2001.Everyone, including
those who are not in the club, has this opportunity.
You can use a book, other than the one we read, if you choose to.
 There
is a baseball game Friday night at 5 P.M.
Go and show your support for your school!!!
