****************************
So what’s happening this year? Well, you can start by checking out the 2023 Fall Schedule. Our Monday meetings will resume on September 11th at 1PM and 2:30PM, with a social break in between. They’ll be held in the conference space of ECPI University, 3800 Paramount Drive, North Charleston, 29405. Hey, members! Don’t forget to register!
Next, review the exciting lineup that CALL has on offer. The Catalog of Classes is online and CALL class registration has begun! Remember, in addition to attending CALL classes, you also can volunteer to teach a course. If you have expertise in a topic you’d like to share, please email CAforLifelongLearning@gmail.com.
This year, the Service in Action Committee has adopted Reading Partners. By volunteering with their organization, our members will have the opportunity to read with elementary school children every week. And in September and October, we’ll collect school supplies to support teachers and students. A list of what they need will come out soon! SIA is a new committee that has had a lot of success in its first year. New members are welcome, and we’d love to hear your ideas for projects that help others in our community. Want more information? Join us and become a member by registering online.
Did you realize we already have Trips and Tours scheduled? There is an upcoming tour of Joint Base Charleston AND an event around PURE Theatre’s production of ATWATER with more to come. Be sure to come to the next meeting on Monday, September 11 to find out more.
Finally, don’t forget about our Book Group! The group meets at 1pm every first Wednesday in Meeting Room A at the Charleston Main Library, 68 Calhoun Street, Charleston 29401.
Well, I hope that’s caught you up. If you are not a member already, please join us and I hope to see you soon!
Looking forward to it–
Kristal Hudson-Randall, President,
Center for Creative Retirement
