Members can make friends and share interests ranging from rabbits to rockets. The club will have its first fall meeting at 7:15 p.m. Monday, Oct. 6, at St. Philip’s Episcopal Church, 5271 Scotts Valley Drive.
Projects to be offered this year include biking, knitting, cooking, electricity, raising market lamb, sewing, entrepreneurship and Western horsemanship. Other projects may be added, depending on the skills of new members’ parents.
