Rotary is 1.4 million passionate individuals in 46,000+ clubs worldwide. We are both an international organization and a local community leader. Together we lead change in our own backyards and across the world. ## **Interested in fellowship and community service?** You don't have to be a Rotary member to get involved with Rotary. We have fellowships, groups, and community service projects for all ages and interests. Connect with a local Rotary or Rotaract club near you to find out what's available and how you can be involved.

Books and Booze in the Desert (for classy women)

Palm Springs, CA

Books and Booze in the Desert (for classy women)
**Books and Booze in the Desert is a group for women who love to read, share thoughts about books and have a cocktail or two in the company of a few new friends.** Please Note: We recently started a second group to focus exclusively on Mystery Novels. This group will meet less frequently, also on Thursday evenings, beginning in January. Membership in Books and Booze in the Desert will allow you to attend either group or both. I (Leslie Smith) took over this group almost a year ago and I'm delighted with the progress we've made in that time. There is now a core group of members who show up for most meetings, and everyone seems quite comfortable sharing their thoughts about the books we read. Since the previous Organizer provided a brief biography in this space, I will do the same. I'm a full time resident of Palm Springs; I'm retired, and I am excessively enthusiastic about lots of things, including books, wine, and photography, and I love to share my enthusiasm with others. I put a lot of time and thought into the books I select for us to read. I appreciate the fact that everyone has different taste and so I attempt to find books which will appeal to a broad audience. However, I freely admit a preference for strong female characters! I welcome comments, suggestions, thoughts, etc. from members at any time. You can always reach me via the website although I typically share my email address and phone number at meetings as well.
