Northridge Book Club

The Northridge book club was formed as a social activity for the Northridge sub division in Erie, Colorado. Our first meeting was held on June 30th, 2009. We meet from 7 – 8:30 on the first Tuesday of every month with a different member hosting the book club.

The monthly host of the bookclub will remind members of the book we are reading, the date of the next meeting and the location of the meeting.  Jolene will keep this list up to date with book selections and hosting schedules.
