Book Club Night (The Whole-Brain Child)

UPDATE: This date has been confirmed for the The Whole-Brain Child book club to meet.

RSVP here: https://online.traxsolutions.com/dadguild/main#/search

____________________________________________________________________

We admit, we dropped the ball a bit on book clubs recently. But now they are back and with a bit more structure. The last Wednesday of the month is now officially “Book Club Night” - where we will welcome groups to meet hybrid-style - in-person at The Guild Hall or join remotely.

So how does it work?

1 - Sign up for book groups online via our Trax RSVP link (scroll to the very bottom for books)

2 - Once a book has 5 RSVPs, we’ll connect you with the other dads who signed up for the same book.

3 - Dads correspond and pick the Book Club Night that works best

4 - That night, come to the Guild Hall (or hop on the meeting link) and discuss.

Need a copy of the book? Dad Guild and lend you one. Swing by The Guild Hall. 

We’ll do our best to share the confirmed books clubs meeting in advance, in case other dads want to join too. Watch the monthly newsletters as well as our Instagram.

RSVP for books here: https://online.traxsolutions.com/dadguild/main#/search
