A book signing has been arranged for August 16, 2008 at the Algonquin Provincial Park Visitor Centre from 11 am until 3 pm. Proceeds of book sales support the Friends of Algonquin Park.

For those that don’t know, the FoA is the body responsible for producing items such as the backpacking trail and canoe route maps, the Logging Museum guides and the day use trail guides. The FoA also creates a lot of the programs that park visitors enjoy as well as a wonderful weekly newsletter called the Raven.

My hope is that this may inspire people to try wilderness backpacking and canoe tripping. I will have a table and space to set up a display about wilderness cooking and I hope to include some camping gear, bookmarks and other handouts.

Friends of Algonquin memberships can be purchased at the bookstore or online. Membership gives you 15% of in either of the FoA run bookstores (Visitor Centre and Logging Museum) among other benefits.

Maybe, I will see some of you there.
