The final count for
Chichester Grange’s Socks for Seniors 2018 collection was 165 pairs.
This number well exceeds last year’s count, so give yourselves a big
pat on the back. Again, thanks to The Attic Thrift Shop and the
Chichester Town Library for serving as drop-off spots. We’ll be
collecting again in the fall of 2019.
Happy Birthday to David
Hammond on January 13 and to Carolee Davison on January 15.

This evening, Wednesday,
January 9th, the Evening Book Group will be meeting at 7 p.m. to
discuss The Elegance of the Hedgehog, by Muriel Barbery. The
main character of the novel is a middle-aged, widowed concierge of
some refinement and intelligence who hides these qualities.
Why she has chosen that path, and her interactions with the
residents of her building, particularly a twelve-year-old,
precocious girl, are all part of this international bestseller.
The Memory Café is
scheduled for 2 p.m. on Monday, January 14th, at the Epsom Library.
