Thanks to Darcy, we’ll have a table at Quad Day: August 23 from noon to 4 PM. Come! Help!
Until then we won’t be having our regular meetings. We’ll start back up after the first day of instruction.

Bedaǔrinde ni malsukcesis organizi la ĉi jaran piknikon junie, sed ne perdu la esperon – la 26an de Julio ĉiuj dezirantoj estas invitataj partopreni nian tradician aranĝon en Shiller Forest Preserve (arbara rezervejo de Ŝilera Parko) ¼ m. okcidenten de la stratkruco inter Camberland kaj Irving Park. Vidu la mapon. Proponata tempo: de tagmezo – ĝis la 4a pt. Prenu manĝaĵon kaj trinkaĵon laŭ via plaĉo. Rostigilo funkcios. 1-2 aŭtoj estos pretaj veturigi gesamideanojn je 11.45 de la CTA haltejo Camberland (blua linio). Por ĉi servo telefonu 773-344-2276 aŭ sendu ret-mesaĝon al Viktoro araneoesp@yahoo.co.uk. Ĝis la!

Fall activities
We’ve started planning activities for the fall. Here are a few ideas:
- Quad day — Darcy has arranged for us to have a table. We’re planning to buy a banner for it. (So: What should the banner say?)
- Posters — Darcy and I are planning to post some posters, to invite people to our meetings. Maybe two times–first for the summer meetings, and then again after the beginning of the semester.
- Bake sale — Early in the semester, we’re thinking of holding a bake sale in the Foreign Language building to raise money for other projects.
- Public presentation — We’d like to hold a public meeting where we’d invite the general public to a presentation on Esperanto. (Tasks: request a room from the University.)
- Videos — We’re thinking about making a couple of short videos.
Other ideas?

Short-story discussion
The topic of the next (July 2nd) meeting will be a discussion of the short story “Marvirinstrato” by Tim Westover, the title story of his new short story collection.
You can download the book for free, so even people who haven’t bought a copy can participate.
If any beginners want to participate, we can get together in advance to read it as a group. Express interest either to the Esperanto_Champaign list or to info@ekoci.org.

Meet us in St. Louis!
Because of the end of the school year, and because of the Esperanto jarkunveno, we won’t meet next week. Instead, join us at the jarkunveno itself!
We still need to decide whether we’re going to try to meet over the summer. Check here for updates.
