June 7: Author Jennifer Murphy and Annual Meeting

David Veenstra

Luncheon program and meeting at
Senior Services of Van Buren County
8337 M-140, South Haven.
RSVP required. Contact info@scottclub.org

Listen to entertainment by David Veenstra while you enjoy your delicious lunch served at the Senior Center. The post-lunch program will feature author Jennifer Murphy, followed the Annual Meeting. This promised to be a delightful event!

David Veenstra has been a singer songwriter for decades. His band, Invisible Ink, received national airplay. In recent years, he performed in a duo, “In Harmony” with Rev. Ron VanLente. Since Ron’s passing in July of 2020, he has been performing solo at South Haven Farm Market, private parties, and events with quality originals and over 230 cover songs. Membership meeting will follow entertainment.

Jennifer Murphy, former Scott Club member, will describe her new novel Scarlet in Blue, set in South Haven in 1968 and Chicago in 2014. Narrated in three voices, Scarlet in Blue is a beautifully written psychological mystery from its shocking first sentence to its unexpected twist at the end. A starred review in Booklist states: “Murphy dazzles… This novel will leave readers questioning what is real and how mental health can affect generations in kaleidoscopic ways.” Jennifer and her husband now live in Houston where she misses Lake Michigan every day. Black River Books will have her books available at the luncheon and the author will autograph upon request. Her two novels are available online also.
