Ethan’s Social Arena...……(or lack thereof)

By Amy Moe

I know summer is a very hectic time for most people in our area. Everyone is out enjoying the nice weather, and kids have us all running in every direction with their games and plans for their summer      vacation. But, as you can tell just by stepping in the Mitchell Walmart, school will resume again soon and our busy schedules will slow a little. Although some may be busier with school activities and sporting events.

  I have stated before that Ethan is a wonderful, cozy town to live in, but if you do not have a child in the school system here, it makes it hard to meet people. There are a few lovely organizations around which give people opportunity to meet others and get out of the house, but there really isn't much for a “social arena” other than going to the local watering hole. I would love to see other opportunities for people to get together. I would like to hear from you, the community, about what you would be interested in seeing established in Ethan for some added social time. I myself would be extremely interested in starting a book club if there were any others that would enjoy that. Reading is one of my favorite past times, and I would love to spearhead something of that nature.

  If there is any interest in a monthly Book Club, or if you have any other ideas, please call me at 227.4418 or email moedesignpub@gmail.com. I would love to hear what our community has to say about bringing us all a little closer together.
