Saturday, September 3rd at Maranacook Boat Landing, Readfield

"The Founders and Evolution of SUMMER RESORTS AND KIDS CAMPS on Four Lakes in Central Maine" by Dale Potter-Clark and Charles L. Day, Jr.

Book Sale and Signing this Saturday, Sept. 3rd, at Maranacook Boat Landing, Readfield (1/2 mile south of Readfield Corner on route 41) 10am-2pm. The site for this appearance was chosen because of its proximity to Harvey Island Camp and also to Bill Morgan's Camp Maranacook for boys. Also nearby was the Harvey homestead on "Thunder Mountain", which has an infamous history on several levels. This is also near the location where the fable about the Indian Chief's son Haukeemah and the settler's daughter "Mary-no-cook" originated. Dale will point out and share stories about those locations to people who have interest. All of these stories and more are included in our book "Summer Resorts and Kids' Camps"!!
So, throw on your kyacks or canoes or tow your motor boats to the Maranacook Boat Landing, spend a little time with us learning about the history of the resorts and kids' camps on northern Maranacook, buy your copy of the book - chock full of pictures - and set out on your own history trek on the waters of northern Maranacook Lake!! It will be a great day of learning and fun in the sun!!
