Central
Valley Haiku Club
August 2014
Our Central
Valley Haiku Club held the midsummer meeting on Saturday, August 9, 2014 at the
Gekkeikan Sake Factory in Folsom. In attendance were members Bill Owen, Yvonne
Cabalona, Ricardo de Bernardi, Lynne Sperry, Mark Hollingsworth and his wife,
Nancy, and Leslie Rose.
While we shared a feast of foods supplied by the members we discussed
the finer points of writing haibun, and our current efforts to write a Club
linked haibun, before turning to business.
Our
current focus is our next meeting which will be our Annual Haiku Reading.
Yvonne has again secured us the Gekkeikan Sake Factory meeting room for
that event. We are ever so grateful to
the Sake Factory for their continued support of this annual event. This year the reading will be held on Saturday, October 11th. The Reading itself will be from 1:00-3:00 and
will be followed by our Club meeting from 3:00-4:00.
After
details concerning the Reading were worked out, we took time to celebrate. Yvonne will have a haibun and a haiku
appearing in the next volume of “Bottle
Rockets” (volume 16 #1).
With
plans made, we adjourned, anticipating our next gathering.
Respectfully
submitted,
Leslie Rose, CVHC
Secretary
