Our hearty band of WPA Chestertonians will gather on Friday, November 16 for the next installment of The Scrappy Evangelist. We will discuss the selection which begins with section "5.1 Elfland and Chesterton's Recognition of Contingency", and runs to the end of Chapter 3. This is found on pages 222-295, and is roughly the second half of the third chapter.
Please try to read as much of the selection before the meeting, since it is a lengthy selection, and we will not have time to read aloud more than various sections from the text. (As you read, make note of the parts that you would like to read-aloud and discuss.)
As usual our meeting will be held in the Village of Middle Lancaster, at the Lancaster Township Community Center located on Kings Alley and Community Center Drive, in Butler County PA. Kings Ally is a right turn off of Rt. 19N, approx. 4.5 miles north of Zelienople, just past the Zion Lutheran Church. (The Community Center is a former one room school house, adjacent to the ball fields at Bauder Park.)
The doors will open at 7:00 pm for our potluck of refreshments, with the discussion beginning at 7:30. The meeting will wrap up sometime around 9:30 pm.
Any questions or comments, please feel free to email me at wpachesterton@gmail.com
ADDENDUM: MEETING CANCELED
Greetings WPA Chestertonians,
I hope read this while enjoying whatever electrical service you are accustomed to!
I just received a call from the woman who oversees the use of the Community Center, who apologetically let me know that the parking lot and entrance ramp to the Community Center will not get cleared in time for our meeting tonight. Evidently with the severity of the impact of the snow and ice here in Harmony, the Township road crews have been working round the clock to tend to road conditions, and fallen trees. A number from the area are without power.
In light of these developments, I’m disappointed to have to cancel tonight’s meeting. I expect that we will return to The Scrappy Evangelist in January.
Our December meeting is traditionally a more festive event than our regular meeting. Tonight I will be sending out a brief survey to determine what the group thinks our December festivity should look like this year.
Also, our next meeting is scheduled for December 21. Hopefully, the third Friday night’s proximity to Christmas is not to much of a difficulty. When you receive the survey email, please respond with your thoughts as soon as possible, so we can get our plans in place in a timely manner.
Blessings,
Vicki
