Picnics and Scrolls and Britain

As primary moderator of the CWC blog, I have the pleasure of monitoring the links of members. I must say this:

We may have the most powerful group of writers, explorers, and literary artisans I have know as advisor of Club in 6 years. 

And I give individual compliments freely, but rarely do I characterize a group with glowing terms. So, please feel shoulder-patted.

(note: I am considering naming our community readings, etc. as "Event(s)" for ease and brevity.)

Updates include:

Kudos to Emilie for planning our first Event: The Fall Picnic and Quidditch at French Park last weekend!

Also, a special thanks goes to Madison for giving me up-to-the-minute directions (French Park, I will never lose you again.) and to Smackeben for running around with wild abandon and with purpose, somehow simultaneously. More thanks to people who brought food. There was even cake.

Stay tuned for November's Event.

Dues are due

Hi everyone,

This week has some additional paperwork for our members. The $30 dues are ...due. Please excuse the obvious discomfort of the homonym usage, but instead focus on the ability to keep our Club running. Checks are payable to WHS.

I am excited about how the blogs are going. Reading your work has been a daily highlight for me.

The next club meeting will include our guest speaker of Ms. Prokott, published poet and new WHS faculty member. Don't miss this meeting!

Attached is the prezi of our Ongoing Paperwork. Check it out when you get a chance.

Additionally, Bemedji is hosting its submission process for New Voices again. Have you submitted anything to Deck for New Voices? (And have you submitted anything for WHS The Voice to Tolle yet?)

Have amazingness today.
