On Jan. 11, following lunch, Dan Capuano will be speaking about the book, “True Ghost Stories From Altamont & Surrounds.” We will hear excerpts from the book and background on how the authors, Tom Capuano and Thom Breitenbach, were inspired to write the book. Copies of the book will be available for purchase.

On Jan. 25, interested attendees will be planting small pots of narcissus bulbs for early spring indoor blooming.
