SUMMARY:Book Club - The Berry Pickers by Amanda Peters
DESCRIPTION:Book Club – The Berry Pickers by Amanda Peters\nLed by Marcy Manas and Liz Morley\n16:00 Tuesday 24 November\nOur Book Talk meets once a month. Books are available to borrow from the Gura Family Memorial Library. \nOur November choice is The Berry Pickers by Amanda Peters. \nOne family’s deepest pain. Another’s darkest secret. Who will they be when the truth comes out? \nOn a hot day in 1960s Maine\, six-year old Joe watches his little sister\, Ruthie\, sitting on her favourite rock at the edge of the blueberry fields\, while their family\, Mi’kmaq people from Nova Scotia\, pick fruit. That afternoon\, Ruthie vanishes without a trace. As the last person to see her\, Joe will be forever haunted by grief\, guilt and the agony of imagining how his life could have been. \nIn an affluent suburb nearby\, Norma is growing up as the only child of unhappy parents. She is smart\, precocious and bursting with questions she isn’t allowed to ask – questions about her missing baby photos; questions about her dark skin; questions about the strange\, vivid dreams of campfires and warm embraces that return night after night. Norma senses there are things her parents aren’t telling her\, but it will take decades to unravel the secrets they have kept buried since she was a little girl. \nThe Berry Pickers is an exquisitely moving story of unrelenting hope\, unwavering love\, and the power of family – even in the face of grief and betrayal. \nMembers pre-paid NIS 25\nNonmembers NIS 35 (Cash only at the door) \nPurchase tickets below\, call the box office 09-8330950 (Sunday-Thursday 9:00-12:30) or pay at the door. \nPrepaid tickets available until noon on the day of this event. \nNearby Parking: (one block north of Netanya AACI\, approach from the north on Shmuel Hanatziv to turn right into the driveway just before the traffic circle) \nUsing Waze: https://waze.com/ul/hsv8zcjvhf \nUsing Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/teDPagS7GRUi5VzY8

SUMMARY:Dr. Avraham Roos: The Secret Lives of Words
DESCRIPTION:The Secret Lives of Words\nPresented by Dr. Avraham Roos\n19:30 Tuesday 24 November \n\nHave you ever wondered why October is the tenth month when its name means “eight\,” how a sandwich got its name\, or what a jeep\, a tulip\, and a slogan have in common? The Secret Lives of Words takes you on an entertaining journey through the surprising origins of English vocabulary. Discover how words are borrowed from other languages\, created from names and places\, shortened\, blended\, reshaped\, and sometimes completely transformed in meaning. Behind many ordinary words lie extraordinary stories—and after this lecture\, you may never look at the English language in quite the same way again. \n\n \nDr. Avraham Roos is an experienced educator\, linguist\, and public speaker who has lectured widely to English-speaking adult audiences throughout Israel on subjects ranging from Jewish history and culture to language\, art\, and general history. Born in the Netherlands\, he made aliyah in 1991 and has since built a long career in education\, including teaching in the English Departments of several teacher-training colleges\, where he has trained future English teachers in language and methodology. Dr. Roos holds an MA from the University of Liverpool and a PhD from the University of Amsterdam\, where his research focused on the history and development of English translations of the Passover Haggadah. His lectures combine scholarly depth with accessible storytelling\, personal insight\, humor\, and a strong visual dimension\, making complex and sometimes unexpected topics engaging for a broad adult audience.\n\n  \n\n \nMembers pre-paid NIS 40\nMembers at door and non-members NIS 60 \nPurchase tickets below\, call the box office 09-8330950 (Sunday-Thursday 8:30-12:30) or pay at the door (cash only). \nPrepaid tickets available until noon on the day of this event. \nNearby Parking: (one block north of Netanya AACI\, approach from the north on Shmuel Hanatziv to turn right into the driveway just before the traffic circle) \nUsing Waze: https://waze.com/ul/hsv8zcjvhf \nUsing Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/teDPagS7GRUi5VzY8
