  Go Green MP: Reading for a Change! Thur. Sept 17th 7-8:30pm Khepri Kitchen + Coffee 106 S. Emerson St. MP Book Club + In Person Meeting!!! It's time to start reading for our second book club meeting ever! Join us September 17 to discuss "The Death and Life of the Great Lakes" by Pulitzer Prize finalist Dan Egan. In this 2017 NYT Book Club pick, Egan covers the ecological history of the Great Lakes, including the effects of invasive species. This should be a very interesting and relevant read for us here in the Great Lakes region! No time to read? Join us anyway - you don't need to have to read the book to participate. Hope to see you there!
