[Bookstoprisoners] reading group

[Barbara kessel]

i personally like the idea of B2P sponsorship, which would simply help
you get the Family Room for less (or free) and perhaps encourage a
couple of volunteers to join, but we would have to discuss this as a
whole and agree upon it in our January 12 meeting (the monthly meeting
for keystaff and packing volunteers.)
     I would be in it myself, but currently have every Tuesday night
taken. This could possibly  change in the Spring semester. Barbara
