***SPECIAL MEETING***
Blind Date with a Book Event
Let’s celebrate Christmas in July! Our event, Blind Date with a Book (white elephant style), will occur at each of our meetings as a fun way to share a book we love and get to know each other more. See below for details on how to participate and the plan of action for the event.
To participate:
* Post a 🎁 directly in the event(s) page you will be attending and participating in
* Select a new or like new book you want to gift (yes, used books can be gifted as long as they are in like new condition)
* Write the genre and up to 3 hints about the book on a tag or the wrapping itself (I.e. romance, enemies to lovers, sports, spicy)
* Bring wrapped book (with the tag) to the meeting(s) of your choice - see examples in the comments of this post
* You can attend more than one meeting
* Gift only one book per meeting
At meeting:
* Sign in with moderator upon arrival
* Moderator will collect book while you write your name on a slip of paper to enter the swap
* At 615p, moderator will begin drawing names at random
* When your name is called, you can select any book and unwrap it
* The next person called can choose an unwrapped book or “steal” from any of the previously chosen books
* This will continue until all participants have been called and have a book
* At the completion of the swap, you are welcome to trade and swap with others, especially if you end up with a duplicate title
Please note: These meetings will be more social than reading unless time allows. You are more than welcome to attend the meeting as an observer if you choose not to participate.
We hope you enjoy these special meetings! For those who prefer the quiet reading hour, we will be back to our typical style and schedule in August.
Merry Christmas in July! 🎁📚
