Greetings ICSers! We went from Summer to Fall overnight, eh? TThe frost is definitely on the pumpkin.
Last month's meeting went Ok, with Norman Prentiss doing the presentation. Norman did a reading from one of his short stories- "Storybook Forest", a tale based on his recollections of the "Enchanted Forest". That was one of my favorite get-aways with the parents. So simple- nowadays kids would be bored in no time flat. But danged if it wasn't pretty cool to me.
We didn't have much of a business meeting. When we started, we only had 10 people, and 4 of them were board members. By the end of the evening attendance had crawled up to 15.
As you hopefully know- October is our ANNUAL HALLOWEEN PARTY. Once again we'll be having Greg Mank as guest speaker, talking on the original "Island of Lost Souls". Bring along a dish for the potluck supper. Tom P and I will handle the decorations, Dave W will be bringing festive table cloths and we hope to have our usual nice spread! And of course- movies from dusk to dawn!
October also brings a lot of horror movies on TCM. Mike Schilling was nice enough to send this list to me. A lot of Hammer in this list! Get out your popcorn, crawl into your snuggie, and watch some cook ghoul flicks!
