We Sailed Book Launch/Float, Sunday 5/21

Book Launch Details!

The plan is to hold a reading at 5pm on Sunday, May 21 in the Washington Park Arboretum. The reading/gathering will be low-key, featuring guest poets and some books to sell.

The reading will be preceded by an optional float across the lake. Here’s the schedule!

  • 3:00-3:30 Gather at Waterway #1 in Laurelhurst to launch personal boats, shoot some hoops, win big prizes.

  • 3:45 Paddle to UW Waterfront Activities Center to meet anyone who wants to rent a boat. Note: the WAC is open til 7, but unfortunately doesn’t take rental reservations.

  • 4:15 Paddle toward Foster Point on Foster Island.

  • 5:00 Gather at Foster Point to hang out and read poems. The point is a 10 minute walk from the arboretum parking lots. Note: the trail from the west over Marsh Island is currently closed due to highway construction.

  • 6:00 Reading ends… bon voyage!
