Camera Club
The Granby Camera Club will meet at 7 p.m. at the Granby Senior Center on Monday, March 4. The program will be Critiquing Photographs with Robert Floyd. Floyd approaches critiques in a nonconfrontational way and always has something good to say about an image. Bring several photographs on a memory stick for a very informative and enjoyable evening.
Civic Club
After a two-month winter break the Granby Civic Club will meet on Thursday, March 21 at 1 p.m. at the Senior Center. Guest speaker Sandra Flagg, president and coordinator of Waste Not Want Kitchen (WNWN) for the past 15 years, returns to tell us about some of the changes at WNWN. In Flagg’s words, “We are always looking for better ways to serve and meet the needs of the public whom we serve.” These changes, although not all inclusive, include how people were served during and after Covid; food sources; Foodshare; Meal Connect; volunteer opportunities; hair salon services twice a month; clothing distribution and much more. Refreshments will be served. Please contact Ginny Wutka (ginny@lostacres.com) for additional information.
