Movie SIG
Judy and Sharon have done an amazing job selecting movies that provide the basis for stimulating discussions and selecting restaurants with private rooms or areas for us to meet. Judy selects the movies and makes the arrangements. Some of the movies the group has seen include Sully, Love and Friendship, Race, Loving, Meagan Leavey, Table 19, and most recently, Lady Bird. During dinner, the group get to know each other and enjoy delicious meals. After dinner, Sharon provides a brief summary of the movie followed by thought provoking questions. The discussion is often about love, friendship, courage, sacrifice, race, death, and other themes in the movies, feelings are shared and enables a chance to connect with one another on a deeper level. Since the Movie SIG is open to anyone in the Atlanta Chapter of TTN, it provides an opportunity for people from all peer groups to interact while doing something they enjoy.
For upcoming movies
Judy Golden
will send out information on the movie and time to those who RSVP or are in the Movie Group (Google Group). Please reach out to Sharon or Judy if you'd like more information or to RSVP.
Are you interested in day trips around town? Would you enjoy outings with like minded women to sight see, or learn new facts about Atlanta and the surrounding area? If so, this SIG is for you.
Mark your calendars for Tuesday, April 17, 2018, 10:30 AM. The group will meet to visit the Jimmy Carter Center and enjoy a short walk on the Beltline and then to Ponce City Market for lunch. (Departure will be at the Jimmy Carter Center at the end of the activities - you can Uber back if you like).
