Salem Chapter Picnic and Books for Kids Drive!

Mark your calendars for July 12th for our first ever Willamette Writers Salem Chapter Picnic and Books for Kids Drive!

The event is from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM at the River Front Park Pavilion (near the carousel). Our BBQ'ers are geared up, ready to go, and willing to feed anyone that can bring a gently used or new children's book for our "Books for Burgers" campaign. So, don't forget to bring your non-writer friends!

For the writers, Kellie Grill, a Motivational and Inspirational Speaker, will be presenting Light Your Fire So You can Write Your Desire at 12:00 PM. This presentation is sure to motivate even the most hesitant of writers to start churning out pages!

Miguel Loredo and the St. Louis Posse will be providing musical entertainment at 1:30 PM. Come witness the hypnotic beats of poetry and music, a sure delight for those that love the spoken word!

Several authors will be on hand and prepared to answer all your most pressing publishing questions. Check out their books and see what's going on in your local publishing scene.

This is a family friendly event so feel free to bring your pets, children, spouses, and friends while you enjoy a day of inspiration, music, and food!
