The Adelphi NY Statewide Breast Cancer Hotline & Support Program invites breast cancer survivors and caregivers to a special in-person gathering of its Warriors Book Club on Monday, June 1, from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m., featuring a discussion of the novel Our Last Vineyard Summer with author Brooke Lea Foster joining the conversation.
Held at the Alumni House on Adelphi University's Garden City campus, the event offers a unique opportunity for participants to connect face-to-face, engage with program staff, and enjoy an intimate discussion with the author herself.
"Our book club typically meets virtually, so with the arrival of warmer weather, we saw this as a wonderful opportunity to bring our community together in person and experience the beauty of Adelphi's campus in the spring," said Reyna Machado, MA, MBA, Executive Director of the Adelphi NY Statewide Breast Cancer Hotline & Support Program.
Organizers note that the Warriors Book Club has become a meaningful source of connection and support for survivors and caregivers alike, fostering conversation, reflection, and community.
Set across 1965 and 1978, Our Last Vineyard Summer follows a graduate student who returns to her family's summer home on Martha's Vineyard with her sisters, only to uncover long-buried secrets that reshape their understanding of the past.
The Warriors Book Club is a welcoming and supportive reading community open to all breast cancer survivors and caregivers. Participants are encouraged to read the book in advance to fully engage in what promises to be a thoughtful and inspiring discussion.
