[nesfa-reading-group] Should we meet on Tuesdays or Fridays?

[Wes Brodsky]

Having Reading Group meetings on Wednesdays would have to be suggested to the entire membership. The last time we wanted a meeting on Wednesdays, there were objections, until it was explained that this was a one-time meeting for a special purpose.

I left Wednesdays off the list because I didn’t want to interfere with Wednesdays at the clubhouse. How much chaos would it cause for those who come to do NESFA work on Wednesdays? And would the ambient sounds of those doing NESFA work on Wednesdays make it difficult  for a group to hold a book discussion? Would anyone strenuously object to a request for book discussion group to meet in the clubhouse one Wednesday a month?

I work Tuesday nights.  I can usually make Wednesday nights and most Mondays (4th Mondays definitely out).

So, see if you can figure out what would draw the most people in total (from the current active handful, from NESFA, and from the outside world).

 

If that turns out to be Monday I could still make a few during breaks in rehearsal schedules -- Summer is off and I don't have to go to every rehearsal.  Thursday is still locked down most of the time, with maybe 5 or 6 weeks off, most of which won't  line up with reading group meetings.

Since, from experience, we seemed to have better attendance on a non-Friday, I would go for Tuesday. We can remember because it is the day to pay for hamburgers. 2nd or 4th Tuesday makes no difference to me. I could also come any Friday if that is what the group decides.

Hey reading groupers… er, um… reading groupies… um, reading group members (we’ll have to work on that), 



Louis here. 

As you well know, the reading group currently meets on the first Friday of the month. 

Would you be able to attend more meetings if we were to meet on a Tuesday or a different Friday? Let us know by replying with which of the below days you’d prefer to meet on. 

Any Friday
Either the 2nd or the 4th Tuesday
1st Friday
2nd Friday
3rd Friday
4th Friday
2nd Tuesday
4th Tuesday

Also, 

On Friday, May 4th (May the 4th be with you! Damn, we should have read a Star Wars novel), we’ll be discussing Last and First Men by Olaf Stapledon. We’ll also be choosing our next set of books to read. 

 

And on Friday, June 1st, we’ll be discussing Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton (or, as I like to call it, Dino-Disney). 

 

Thanks,
