Book Groups: Whether you read several books a month or like to leisurely read one special book each month, membership in one of our monthly book clubs can be a great experience for you.

CCN Single Women: This group has been meeting online via zoom over the past few months during the pandemic. The plan is to stop these online meetings in the extremely near future. We are not ready to plan in person activities yet. However, we do have a planning committee. This committee will communicate over the next few months. When we feel it is feasible to plan in person activities, we will notify the group and there will be an opportunity to sign up if you are interested. Depending on the activity there may need to a limit to the number of people attending. It will be on a “first come first served basis”. Contact Deborah Evans at debe0719@gmail.com.

 

Cinema Club: There are several CCNNA cinema clubs which meet monthly in a host's home. The host selects one or two movies for the members to watch before coming to the meeting. Because each club has chosen to keep their group small to facilitate discussion and due to limited home seating space, all current clubs are full. A waiting list will be kept; when there are enough names on the list, a new club can be formed.  Contact Terri Cohen at terripcohen@yahoo.com.

 

Exploring Denver: Join our neighbors in exploring Denver’s unique attractions through CCNNA’s authentic guided tours highlighting cultural offerings, historical sights, behind the scenes tours, and even some walking tours. Our planning committee organizes monthly tours that offer small groups the opportunity to learn more about Denver’s hidden treasures each month. Some tours have a fee for the guides or facilities.
