About this Event

The Bell is excited to offer a series of lunches and lectures to senior citizens, 55 and over. Once a month a lively lecture will be given by a local speaker (on a wide range of topics) to be followed by a light lunch, a sandwich, drink, and cookies. We’ve set the price for this at an affordable $15.00, so that as many people can take advantage of this entertaining opportunity- ‘To Lunch and to Learn’.

Local author, Jeff Finegan was always curious about our first president. Come listen as he explains how that curiosity led him to research and then write his four books for young readers known as the I Knew George Washington Series. These books are written from the perspective of people who knew George Washington well, including a slave, his grandson, and the Marquis de Lafayette.Jeff, a skilled storyteller, offers a fascinating look at how an author is inspired to research and imagine historical fiction for children. Jeff's books will be available for purchase, and he will be glad to autograph them for you.

A light lunch will follow in our Lower Level. All of his books are available for purchase through Amazon.com, the author’s website www.iknewgeorgewashington.com.
