We’re going to be meeting in the 21 room this month, rather than the main hall at Drexel. The door is just around the corner from the main entrance, on Linwood.

The December party was a great success, with a White Oliphant exchange, and plenty of po-ta-toes and other appropriate delicacies. Many thanks to Steve and Cindy for hosting! We took a break from our reading in TLOTR for the month of December, to discuss Letters to Father Christmas , so for January we're back on track, reading chapters IV - VI of the first half of The Two Towers . We'll be meeting at Cardboard Corner once again, at 6:30 on January 28.

We've got some ideas that we'll be investigating this month.
July 2024: Updates from the Smial of the Withywindle Meeting Recap The Tolkien Society met on June 24, and we never quite got around to discuss either the Appendix section we had chosen, or a recap of Tom Bombadil, we just talked about trivial Tolkien topics, The Rabbit Hole, moots & conventions, differences in editions of The Hobbit ... You get the idea. For our next meeting, the reading will be the first two chapters of The Hobbit ! Bob Clark, chief newsletter Hobbit Looking for an alternate meeting location We're looking for another location where we could hold some of our meetings, since some members are driving a long distance to get to ReRoll. It looks like Overland Park and vicinity would be the best choice, as it's closer for some folks, and about the same distance for some others. We're looking for some place that's got room for us on a weeknight, and is quiet enough for us to hear everyone in the group. A fantasy theme wou...
