During the Fall 2020 term, I took the OLLI-USF class led by Ara Rogers and Jane Applegate based on the book, Women Rowing North, by Mary Pipher.

I also took this class and I loved it so much that I started a group that met online monthly. For the Fall 2021 OLLI classes, I will be teaching the class.

I do not have an academic background, so I am putting a slightly different spin on it. Join me in the fun!
I’m taking the fall class at Lake Mag Methodist. But I’ve requested the book from the library. That should be hassle-free!
