Storyteller comes to Ricker Library

POLAND — John Ford, author and former Maine game warden, will be the featured speaker at a September Person to Person Potluck/Program at the Ricker Library in Poland. Ford, hailed as “a very good storyteller” by reviewers, has recently released his book, "Suddenly the Cider Didn’t Taste so Good, Adventures of a Game Warden in Maine," and he will share some of his experiences with his audience.

These stories involve dealing with some wild people (lawbreakers), as well as with some wild animals.

Person to Person, beginning its fourth season, is a monthly series of potluck/programs planned to provide opportunity for neighbors and friends to enjoy a meal, some socializing, and a program together.

It is sponsored by Friends of Ricker Library. The September Person to Person will be held in the Poland Library’s Community Room on Sunday, September 9, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. The evening will begin with a potluck supper and conversation hour, followed at 6:30 p.m. by John Ford’s talk about his adventures on the job.

Everyone is invited. There is no charge, but supper guests are asked to bring a casserole, salad or dessert for the meal.
