Thanks for a fun end-of-year party.  As requested, here's the link to the chili recipe. I didn't use the types of beans suggested, but did use the same amounts. I also doubled the recipe but only used 1.5 times the garlic.  Granish with lime taco chips, sour cream, and/or grated cheese.

Another great meeting, although small.  Thanks to those students who let me know they were unable to attend. Please make sure to see me in the next couple days to get your permission form. May 18th will be here before you know it. Here's the link to the Celebration Day site for the day. Check there often to see what's developing. Likely you'll be able to sign up for 3 sessions over the course of the day and these will be limited, sign up early.

Celebration Day

Hi all, Thanks for a GREAT meeting yesterday. Some really interesting discussion! And thanks to those who have volunteered to do some design work for our upcoming celebration day at ODSS. Next Meeting : Thursday, April 21 when we will vote for our White Pine favorite author. Celebration Day : Wednesday, May 18. More details to follow, but at the moment we have Teresa Toten coming to speak and possibly one other author. There will also be a scavenger hunt, origami and other workshops throughout the day. Stay tuned and check out the website

Next Meeting

Looking forward to our next meeting on Thursday, March 24. Bring your current White Pine read. Remember, to be eligible for prizes, you must have read 4 White Pine books by March 24. If you still need a book for the March Break, please drop by and see Mr. Feick. If you're finished your current book, return it so that someone else can take if for the break. See you in the Library!

Meeting Reminder

Just a quick reminder of our meeting this Thursday, February 25. In case of a "snow event" we will meet the following Thursday, March 3. See you in the Library!

January Meeting

Another fun discussion of the White Pine books we've read to date. Congrats for meeting, and in some cases exceeding, the January reading deadline. Remember in order to qualify for an AMAZING prize, you need to read one more for our February meeting, two more for our March meeting and then one more for our April meeting which will, coincidentally, be on the day that the White Pine voting opens.
