The ground rules for Athenaeum (See Founding Invitation for more details). 

1) Men only.

2) The book must be an excellent work of literature with historical significance or cultural importance.

3) The enjoyment of God's gifts of good beer, fine cigars, and aromatic pipes are paramount to the fullness of the experience.  (So no wimps who can't handle a puff of smoke in their face, even if they're not cigar aficionados themselves.)

We are playing this month to month. For a while we had been at the newly (re)opened Terrapin Station, in North College Park (on the corner in the shopping center with Starbucks and Shoppers Food Warehouse.) But they are actually no longer open, and in addition, they had become unsympathetic to our founding principle 3b. Therefore, currently we have been meeting on someone's back porch or deck. Reach out if interested.
