Canmore 2011

March 20^th, 2011
Alpine Club of Canada's Clubhouse - 7 PM

In our Sophomore effort, we held court at the gorgeous Alpine Club of Canada's grand room, standing upon the hearth of the fireplace to tell our tales. Maybe it has always been this way. Luckily, there was no fire lit.
But much wine raised and a few, very good stories, were told.


Christine Thorpe The Fact of Belonging A story of a mother and daughter, of redemption and survival exploring the difficulty of love and the search of meaning in the apparently random events of life.		Rob Alexander The History of Canmore Founded by the CPR in 1883, Canmore has a history of reinventing itself: from railway divisional point to coal mining to resort town. Explored in this: the only book on Canmore’s colourful history.		Jeremy Kroeker Motorcycle Therapy From the Canadian Rockies to the Panamanian jungle, "Motorcycle Therapy" rumbles with comic adventure as two men, fleeing failed relationships, test the limits of their motorcycles and their friendship.		Angie Abdou The Canterbury Trail A mishmash of snow-enthusiasts meet at a backwoods cabin - from the ski bum to the urbanite – and embark on a bizarre adventure that walks the line between comedy and tragedy.		Stephen Legault The Darkening Archipelago Book two in the Cole Blackwater Mystery series. Now Archie Ravenwing is presumed dead in the shadowy depths of British Columbia’s Broughton Archipelago, Cole uncovers a conspiracy that sweeps us along on a race to salvage human souls and wild ecosystems.
