In the Weeds Book Club

This is a book club that is meant to get “into the weeds” on topics of interest to our community. We read thought-provoking books, to discuss the themes and examine how they might be applied to ideas and actions for the City of Sheboygan. Some books are discussed over the course of multiple months. Reserve copies of each selected book will be available to borrow from the library. Organizations are also invited, when appropriate, to share how ideas and impact can be made through their organization. New members are welcome anytime.
