Join WPL and SPECTRUM for a reading circle for 2SLGBTQIA+ folks and allies that takes less commitment than a book club. We'll have different readings (short stories, essays, poetry, etc) that we will read together and then discuss. No preparation needed! The readings will explore 2SLGBTQIA+ topics and/or be written by 2SLGBTQIA+ writers. Register on WPL's website! https://bit.ly/4g1eT2o

An Update on Multi-Sport for September:

Due to renovations happening at the DCC, we will have no pickleball or multi-sport events during the middle two weeks in September. This would be the weekend of September 11 and September 18. Programming will run as usual for the first week of September (next week) and the last week of September.

For the two weeks the main gyms won't be accessible, we're offering two free yoga classes with instructor Eric (he/him) on Saturday, September 12 and Saturday, September 19 from 5:00 - 6:30 PM at another room in the DCC. Please note we will be unable to access the mats due to the renovations, so you will need to bring your own mat to these sessions. Please sign up in advance on our eventbrite: bit.ly/SpectrumEventbrite
