The Maine Summer Camps Book Club is always open to suggestions, and we were happy to hear from the MSC Indigenous Neighbors Working Group (formerly NAWG) suggesting we read “Killers of the Flower Moon” by David Grann.

Please email Laura Jo (laurajo@kingsleypines.com) to confirm you can attend in person. Please register HERE for the link to zoom meeting....
