Hello all,
It was great to read your posts. You all seem to know a great deal about the park. I really hope that this club and the trip in June will give Glacier a new look for you. For this week please view the DVD and book companion for "Days of the Blackfeet" by Carol Murray. I am planning for you all to meet Murray in June. Please post any questions you would have for him, list any ah ha's, and how it makes you look at Glacier now?

Glacier National Park- Home to the Blackfeet Book Club
Hello,
Welcome back for another eye-opening journey. This will be another learning experience for all of those involved. This book club is to build background knowledge and peak your interest for June's Traveling Professional Development Trip. I hope you find this one to be just as rewarding as the past ones. The focus of the book club this time is looking at a national treasure through a Native perspective. This park has been commercialized in so many ways and I believe many do not leave Glacier National Park with a true perspective of its history. I hope through this book club and the trip that each of you will have a different perspective of the park.
This club includes reading, music, oral stories, and much more.
