Peter Rennebohm (center), author of Blue Springs, with Rene' and Wes LaFortune at the February 2009 3C event

3C’s meets 6 times a year – every other month. We currently meet at the Blackwater Coffee and Café in Maple Plain from 6:30-8:00PM. We are an all fiction book club, alternating between Classics (written more than 100 years ago) and Contemporary authors (written by an author within 5 years of the age of the person recommending it). Our members range in age from 30-70+ and are both men and women – so all are welcome. This group is open to GS members and non-members. Even if you can only attend a few events a year, feel free to come join us!

For further information contact Bill Pinegar

Sampling of books we have read:
Prince and the Pauper
Treasure Island
Pride and Prejudice
Beloved
Great Santini
All Quiet on the Western Front
