Friends Read
Join the Friends of the Sherburne National
Wildlife Refuge and bring a neighbor for
an evening of community as they
discuss the book, Runes of the
North, by Minnesota author
Sigurd Olson.
A prominent environmentalist
and nature advocate, Olson
spent his lifetime fighting to
protect wilderness areas. Runes
of the North is a great example
of Olson's ability to tell stories
about his experiences in the
woods.
Hosted by the Friends of
Sherburne, a gathering to
discuss the book will be held
April 23 at 6:30 pm at the Oak
Savanna Learning Center at the
Sherburne National Wildlife
Refuge, located NW of
Zimmerman on the south side
of County Road 9, approximately
5 miles west of Highway 169.
The book is available from
public libraries or for purchase
in hardcover, paperback or
download. The discussion guide
can be requested by emailing
friendsofsherburne@gmail.com.
The Friends of Sherburne is a
non-profit group that assists and
supports Refuge projects and
educational programs.
