TOL Community Klatsches
Joining a klatsch is a wonderful way to share an interest with old friends and make some new ones. You can join one or join them all – the more enjoyment you will have! Klatsches are open to all adult members of Tree of Life.
If you have any questions, please email Jeanne Swager.
Book Club Klatsch
The Book Club Klatsch meets once a month, usually on the third Monday evening at 7:30 p.m., to discuss books of a variety of genres that focus on a range of subjects of interest to members of the Congregation. Our first Klatsch of 2025 will be held on Monday, January 20. Our first book will be The Women by Kristin Hannah. The evening will begin with a potluck dinner in the Social Hall at 6:30 p.m. Since this book is set in the 1960s, the potluck's theme is "Food from the 60s."
2025 meeting dates are: March 17, May 19, July 21, September 15, and November 17.
Planning is underway for 2025. Following the book discussion in January, we will consider proposed books for the year, so please bring a recommendation to the Klatsch!
Dinner with Friends Klatsch
Roughly every two months, a TOL member hosts people at their home for an evening of great food and conversation. Invitations go out a few weeks before the scheduled dinner with information on who the host is and what the the theme of the dinner will be. There also is a Sign Up posted to indicate what you will bring in order to coordinate the food selections.
On January 18, Laura and Rick Kagan will host the Dinner with Friends Klatsch. The evening's theme is "Winter Comfort Foods." Please RSVP on Signup Genius and let us know what you would like to bring so that we can balance the menu. The dinner will begin at 6 p.m.
Additional scheduled dates thus far for 2025 are March 22 and May 17. Please contact Jeanne Swager for additional information or to let her know that you would like to host a future event.
Klatsch on the Move
For those interested in staying fit, despite all the temptations in our lives (as well as the Dinner Klatsch), a group of TOLers meets every Sunday morning at 9:30 a.m. at a predetermined location to walk together. Walks are usually about 1-2 hours and have taken place at a variety of scenic trails in our community. Each week the location is announced in our weekly E-Blast.
