UPCOMING READINGS
2008 - Dates & Featured Poets
September 7, Special Event featuring Eloise Klein Healy.
Our monthly readings take place on Sundays afternoons in the banquet room of the Flying Bridge restaurant (check out the view), overlooking the mouth of the San Luis Rey River, the Oceanside Harbor, Harbor Beach, and the Pacific Ocean.
We start at 3pm with a featured poet, then have an open mike reading - usually 2-3 times around the room - until about 5:30pm. All are welcome to read their own poems, read some favorite poems, or just sit and listen. Readings are free and open to the public.
Hosted by Dick Eiden and Clifton King.
After the reading everyone is invited to join the featured poet and others for no-host food, drink and conversation in the dining room with a view. Among other things, the restaurant has "early bird" dinner specials until 6pm.
LOCATION: Flying Bridge restaurant, 1105 N. Coast Highway, near I-5, Coast Highway exit, in NW Oceanside, California. Take I-5 to the Coast Highway exit, follow the signs to Coast Highway, then turn right (north) on Coast Highway. The Flying Bridge shares a parking lot with the Guesthouse Inn.

Our Sept. 7 special event will benefit No on Prop 8 - Marriage Rights for All, a North County gay-straight task force working to defeat Proposition 8. There will be a social hour with live music and appetizers at 2pm, before the reading. The $10 for the social hour will go toward the food and rental of the banquet room. The 3pm reading will be free, and followed by an open-mic as always.
We'll pass a hat after Ms. Healy's reading for those who wish to support the local independent task force against Prop. 8. For more information about the task force and it's work, see ProgressivePost.com. For more information about Eloise Klein Healy, click Featured Poet or visit EloiseKleinHealy.com.
