Sundance Library…

Welcome back all you avid readers.

The Library has a new look this year. Some categories have been moved to make room for more book cases. All books have been relabeled and alphabetized so you can find your favorite author faster. We do have a notebook now listing all our authors and most all our book titles. So, if you are looking for a certain author or book title, you may look in the notebook, or ask a volunteer to help you.

I want to thank everyone who donated book ends to the library this summer—also to whomever organized all of the jigsaw puzzles. It is really appreciated. If you run across any missing puzzle pieces when you are putting a puzzle together, please put a note on the outside weather of the box, so the volunteers can take care of it. Thank you.

One thing we do ask, PLEASE DO NOT grasp the moveable shelves to pull yourself up from a kneeling position. We are afraid you might injure yourself when the books and shelf fall on you. You may grasp the side of the bookcase to assist yourself up. Once again, Thank You.

Have a wonderful and joyful reading season.

Bible Study…

Bible Study begins Thursday, November 12 at 1:00 pm in the Hang-Out Room. This year we will be using the LifeGuide study of “End Times”. With all that is going on in our world, this seems like a timely study.

Do you know what scripture says about the last days? If you are just curious or want to know more about what is ahead, please join us for a look at this subject. There will be no particular time predicted or no chronological list of events as there is no consensus among Bible scholars as to what happens when. However, we will examine the texts to see what God says.

Study guides will be available for $6 if you would like to purchase one. If you have any questions, please contact Mike Hughes or Shari Andersen.

Friday Night Sabbath…

Anyone caring to join us for Shabbos on Fridays at 6:30 PM, please contact the activities office for further information. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Anyone interested in watching or getting involved is welcome to visit us at the track Monday and Wednesday afternoons at 2 to 4pm.

There are newly constructed stands built by the race car drivers and is designed for drivers only, but feel free to bring a chair and watch the racing. For your own safety, please do not sit too close to the track. The cars are very fast and periodically we do experience accidents. There is a safety fence but cars have been know too leave the track unexpectedly.

Looking forward to seeing you at the track!
