The Wellington Vintage Teacher’s Bookclub is composed of retired Wellington teachers mainly from Wellington Elementary School and Binks Forest Elementary School. Many have stayed in touch since 1981 when Wellington Elementary School opened. Once a month, a pair of two teachers choose a book for the club to read, then meet at one of their homes to discuss the selection. Recently, Joy Riley and Joan Bausch chose Wellington Redemption, written by local author Stephen F. Medici. Medici readily agreed to attend when the group discussed the book on Oct. 28. The group had a lively discussion about this book and others by Medici. The group then took up a collection for contributions to a burn center that Medici is associated with in New York.
