    Goodreads Summary: 

    Nominee for Best Historical Fiction (2021)

    An emotional, rousing novel inspired by the incredible true story of two giraffes who made headlines and won the hearts of Depression-era America.

    “Few true friends have I known and two were giraffes…”

    Woodrow Wilson Nickel, age 105, feels his life ebbing away. But when he learns giraffes are going extinct, he finds himself recalling the unforgettable experience he cannot take to his grave.

    It’s 1938. The Great Depression lingers. Hitler is threatening Europe, and world-weary Americans long for wonder. They find it in two giraffes who miraculously survive a hurricane while crossing the Atlantic. What follows is a twelve-day road trip in a custom truck to deliver Southern California’s first giraffes to the San Diego Zoo. Behind the wheel is the young Dust Bowl rowdy Woodrow. Inspired by true events, the tale weaves real-life figures with fictional ones, including the world’s first female zoo director, a crusty old man with a past, a young female photographer with a secret, and assorted reprobates as spotty as the giraffes.

    Part adventure, part historical saga, and part coming-of-age love story, West with Giraffes explores what it means to be changed by the grace of animals, the kindness of strangers, the passing of time, and a story told before it’s too late.

    Protecting wildlife from immediate threats resulting from unsustainable human activity, including human-wildlife conflict, illegal wildlife trade, and habitat loss. Strategic and collaborative efforts are needed at every level to protect wildlife and habitats from exploitation and illegal activity.

    Building conservation capacity locally and regionally to strengthen the knowledge, skills, tools, competencies and abilities of individuals and communities (through training, education, awareness-building, and empowerment) - improving their ability to effectively carry out conservation activities.

    Promoting conservation science through the study of biodiversity, conservation, wildlife and human ecology, and examining the relationships between them. Investigations embrace the natural, physical, social, economic and political sciences and generate information needed for effective and measurable conservation impacts."

    Looking for a way to let off some steam this summer? Join one of the Cleveland Professional Twenty-Thirty Club's volleyball teams! Each summer the 20/30 Club partners with Mulberry's for a session of 6 vs. 6 co-ed volleyball games. 

    The level of play is casual/recreational and is self-officiated. It's a nice way to make new friends and get some exercise on a Monday night! The league will start on May 6, 2024 and runs for 7 weeks, plus 1-2 weeks of playoffs (this may include holidays but is subject to change). Schedules are determined at the discretion of the volleyball league. We will inform the team with as much notice as possible, however, game times can be determined with one to two days' notice. Start times for the games could be 6:00PM, 7:00PM, 8:00PM, 9:00PM, or 10:00PM.

    All games will be at:

    Mulberry's

    2316 Mulberry Ave.

    Cleveland, OH

    Currently registration is open to professional members only.

    Important notes:

    If you register for the league, you are expected to attend; if you cannot, you must give 24 hours notice if you are unable to make a game so we have adequate time to find another professional member to substitute. Substitute players will be determined by a team captain.

    Ref fees are included in the cost of your registration and a committee or board member will pay the ref each week.

    We will have multiple teams, so you are able to request up to 2 teammates. Requests to NOT be someone's teammate will be ignored. If you want to register a full team, please make your own arrangements through Mulberry's directly. Also, please do not sign up for a team through the 20/30 club if you are already planning to play on another team in this volleyball league.

    Have fun! Please be respectful of other teammates and opponents, as many players in this league have little to no volleyball experience. This is considered a fun league and for those interested in learning the basics of organized volleyball. There are refs so backyard rules do not apply.

    The mission of the Cleveland Kids’ Book Bank is to foster literacy and a love of reading by distributing free books to children in need through collaboration with community partners.

    The Cleveland Kids’ Book Bank is working to ensure all kids in Greater Cleveland have books to build their own home libraries.

    Goodreads Summary: 

    Goodreads Choice Award Winner for Best Fiction (2017)

    Everyone in Shaker Heights was talking about it that summer: how Isabelle, the last of the Richardson children, had finally gone around the bend and burned the house down.

    In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is meticulously planned – from the layout of the winding roads, to the colours of the houses, to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principle is playing by the rules.

    Enter Mia Warren – an enigmatic artist and single mother – who arrives in this idyllic bubble with her teenage daughter Pearl, and rents a house from the Richardsons. Soon Mia and Pearl become more than just tenants: all four Richardson children are drawn to the mother–daughter pair. But Mia carries with her a mysterious past, and a disregard for the rules that threatens to upend this carefully ordered community.

    When old family friends attempt to adopt a Chinese-American baby, a custody battle erupts that dramatically divides the town – and puts Mia and Elena on opposing sides. Suspicious of Mia and her motives, Elena is determined to uncover the secrets in Mia's past. But her obsession will come at an unexpected and devastating cost . . .

    Goodreads Summary: 

    On Thursday nights, the players assemble in the back of Readmore Comix and Games. Celeste is the dungeon master; Valerie, who works at the store, was roped in by default; Mooneyham, the banker, likes to argue; and Ben, sensitive, unemployed, and living at home, is still recovering from an unrequited love. In the real world they go about their days falling in love, coming out at work, and dealing with their family lives all with varying degrees of success. But in the world of their fantasy game, they are heroes and wizards fighting to stop an evil cult from waking a sleeping god. But then a sexy new guy, Albert, joins the club, Ben’s character is killed, and Mooneyham’s boyfriend is accosted on the street. The connections and parallels between the real world and the fantasy one become stronger and more important than ever as Ben struggles to bring his character back to life and win Albert’s affection, and the group unites to organize a protest at a neighborhood bar. All the while the slighted and competing vampire role playing club, working secretly in the shadows, begins to make its move.

    Jingle & Mingle at the Cleveland Professional 20/30 Club's 20th Annual Stuff the Stocking Fundraiser!

    Each year, our organization raises money for a local children's non-profit. This year we are supporting Olivia's Dream (Olivia's Dream (oliviasdream.org)). 

    From a 2018 news article - "The father of 8-year-old murder victim Olivia Schneider is organizing a toy drive in her memory. Kurt Schneider says his daughter’s wish was to make sure all children receive an abundance of love and joy for the holidays. Thanks to her community, even after her death, that dream is becoming a reality. “Olivia was a gentle, kind student. We had a saying that she was a rainbow and that she was all about kindness,” recalled Lander Elementary School Principal Felicia Evans. However, since Olivia and her mother, Rebecca Pletnewski, were killed in an arson-related fire at their Mayfield Heights home this past November, the school has been working to keep her memory alive. “Olivia really wanted to do a toy drive for kids at Christmas time. So, we said that is a great idea and a great way to help our students, to help our staff and help our Mayfield community really heal from this,” said Principal Evans."

    The toy drive continues to take place yearly, and the volunteer run charity has become so much more"Olivia’s Rainbow Response directly supports children and their families immediately after a traumatic event. Whether it's providing food, clothing, medical supplies, or anything else - we'll be there to help!"

    This event will feature networking, raffle baskets, 50/50 raffle, a grinchy guest, and so much more!

    This year only - bring in a new toy in exchange for 10 basket raffle tickets. Olivia's Dream will collect these toys to distribute to children in need. 

    $10 from every ticket sold may go toward the cost of hosting the event. All other proceeds will be donated to Oliva's Dream. 

    Enjoy a cash bar.  Appetizers are included. 

    This event will be in place of our December Around Town.
