Former State Senator Patty Birkholz, in the year or so before she passed away, served as a great mentor to the DUCC Creation Justice Team. During that time she pressed into our hands — as she did everyone she met — Dan Egan’s amazing and award-winning book, The Death and Life of the Great Lakes.
Patty wanted everyone in the states and provinces that border the Great Lakes to read it, to understand better the challenges our waters have faced and will face, so we can be better equipped to fight for the survival of the largest freshwater system in North America.
So we have decided to read this book together as a kind of community-wide bookclub Event.
Will you join us?
The book is divided into three parts, the Front Door, the Back Door, and the Future. We will gather at the DUCC Friendship Hall, 56 Wall Street, Douglas, MI on these dates to discuss these sections of the book.
The Front Door, September 18, 6:30p.m.
The Back Door, October 23, 6:30p.m.
The Future, November 13, 6:30p.m.
The Saugatuck-Douglas District Library has hard copies and electronic copies of the book available on loan. Cabbages & Kings in Douglas, will be stocking copies of the book.
THIS EVENT IS FULL. Follow this link to Evite.com to put your name on the waiting list!
