Announcing a very special morning with Nancy Eckart, wife of Bob Eckart (Pickleball club member) on March 12, 10- 12 am in the Palm Center. Many of you know Nancy from the Grand Hiking Club or her welcoming presence at the golf course snack shacks or her prior involvement as an instructor at the Computer Club or with Bob from the Pickleball club.
Last year a book was written about her early life having been raised in Yosemite National Park. Many of you have requested a book signing, so to that end please join Nancy at this special event. Coffee and snacks will be provided during the signing, along with an informal question/answer discussion with Nancy moderated by the author, beginning at 10 am.
Please bring your own copy of ‘The Yosemite Valley Girl: A Memoir of the Early Life of Nancy Eckart’ to the signing. (Books are not allowed to be sold at the signing). However, a limited supply of the book will be available locally through the author, Jeanne Vander Ploeg, at her home in Grand, for the Amazon Paperback price of $20. Please email her at jeannevp1@gmail.com for information. Please note that when you purchase from Jeanne, there are no Amazon distribution fees, thereby increasing the overall royalty proceeds, which go directly to Nancy. So, if you do need a copy for yourself or friends, please use this option.
This event is open to anyone interested in Nancy’s story or life inside a national park, so please share this invitation at will. We look forward to seeing you there!
Thanks,
Troy
