Daytime Book Club
April 2024 - December 2024
The AWC Book Clubs are open to all readers. The Daytime Book Club meets from 10am-12pm on the fourth Thursday of every month (with a few exceptions) at the AWC Clubhouse.
Whether you come once, twice or every month, stop by for a great book discussion. One member of the Book Group shares a snack and leads the discussion and the AWC provides coffee. Please join us!
Contact Teresa Mahoney if you'd like to join the daytime book club at
