Readers Holiday in Yorkshire - Bank Holiday Weekend
Gateshead Council's Reader Development Librarian, Dot Cameron writes:
A Holiday for Readers (Like a Readers Day only longer!)
Many of us have experienced the fun and friendship of a readers day or a reading group: meeting other readers and finding out that it really is OK to be passionate about reading!
Now there is the opportunity to extend this experience to a three-day weekend (over the August Bank Holiday weekend) with a holiday designed especially for readers.
Located in a 17th century manor house near Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire we will be reading, talking about books, eating lovely food, walking and meeting other readers. There will be workshops and visits from authors with the added bonus of not feeling guilty about reading, not having to rush off to do the washing up, not being disturbed and actively discussing how we can continue to avoid such hazards! All inclusive price for the weekend is £175 (including wine, beer or fruit juice with evening meals). Or come for just the day (Saturday 26 August) for just
£45. Be sure to book early by contacting A Good Read on 01282 414287 or by visiting the website for more information: www.findmeagoodread.com/holiday.htm There were still places available on Thursday 9th August.
