BOOK SALE
“ Ciad mille failte.”
Loosely translated , this means that Week45 is having a Highland Games Book Sale. You have family and friends coming home for the Games and you’re wracking your brain trying to figure out an appropriate souvenir for them when they head back home. Look no further. Wouldn’t they love to hear some humorous stories about everyday life… the life they left behind when they had the temerity to move to another part of the world?
Starting today and running through Sunday, July 9th, my three books will be selling for $10. each. Or really dazzle the clan by buying all three for $25.00, a 55% saving off the regular retail price. I will be at Columbus Field on Saturday and Sunday with my books. But if you simply can’t wait, track me down and I’ll hand over the goods.
And speaking of the Games, this year the Highland Society is dedicating the Games to the late Dr. Jeanie Cameron and Duffy MacDonald. I had the honor of writing the tribute to Jeanie and will publish the piece this Saturday on my website, Facebook etc.
The Street Fair is on today on the Main. It is a wonderful event with lots of music, food and merchandise. If you haven’t gone before, put this on your “ to do” list today. You won’t be disappointed.
Finally, the Antigonish Art Fair is on tomorrow evening at Chisholm Park. Yours truly will be the Master of ceremonies and we have a great lineup of performers at the gazebo. Check out our local artists and sample some awesome food. There’s a kid’s corners and a few surprises. It’s a great family affair.
“ One hundred thousand welcomes.”
Have a great weekend.
