The Durham Book Club is a part of StrongHER TogetHER that brings 5th-8th grade students together to read books April - July. The season has just ended but will crank up again around October as a team of student leaders start getting together to pick books for the 2027 season. The student leaders pick the books and plan activities for in person sessions. The adult leaders oversee this, manage registrations in Jan-Feb, deliver books in March and coordinate / attend the book sessions April - July. The busiest time for this opportunity is really Jan-May.
Bottom line, this one is in a quiet moment now, but it should crank up again in a couple of months. Oh also...the leaders do a combination of text/email planning, occasional zooms and we have gone to dinner a couple of times, too.
If this sounds like an opportunity for you, reach out! We would love to have you on the Durham Book Club Leadership Team!
