The Cool Club

Ellie started a "Cool Club" last year. About once every month or so, she gathers her club members together for a meeting. We always know it's coming when we begin to see signs hanging in every doorway advertising for all club members to come and sign up. Each member gets a pass with a secret code. You must come with a photo ID and your secret code and slide it under the door, then do the secret knock before you're allowed entrance. Ellie goes into extensive preparation setting up games and snacks prior to each meeting. Last night Keith, Emma and I were allowed entrance. Our games included Jumping Monkeys, Memory, then we had a staring contest, ate some icecream, and went for a walk. Today Alex, Drew, Nick, Elizabeth, Emma, and Julia got to participate. They had a race, ate icepops, and played Pictionary.
