It’s time to sign up for Great Decisions for 2022. Great Decisions is a national program developed by the Foreign Policy Association (FPA) which features 9 discussion topics. The FPA produces a book with background material for each topic. Participants read the background material and then meet in discussion groups to discuss each topic in turn.
Meetings for 2020 are 10-12 on Monday mornings in the East Rec. We plan on 4 groups this year, with each group 14-16 people. Each group meets every other week.
Groups 1 and 2 will meet February 7, 21; March 7, 21; April 4, 18; May 2, 16, and 30
Groups 3 and 4 will meet February 14, 28; March 14, 28; April 11, 25; May 9, 23; and June 6
It appears at this point there will also be a group that will meet on Zoom.
If you are interested in participating, you will need to purchase a workbook produced by the Foreign Policy Association. Cost will be up to $35. Please email us at oakmontgd@gmail.com and we’ll make arrangements for you to get the book. If you’re interested in the Zoom group, please indicate that in your email.

- Changing Demographics
