Fall 2022

October 29 Talmo, Georgia  First Baptist Church 

On Saturday, October 29 Leda and I as well as Mark Rood attended the Fall Festival “Trunk or Treat” at Talmo Baptist Church in Talmo, Georgia. We had been approached several weeks ago  by  the organizer during the Art in the Park event and asked if we would attend. We agreed we  would be at the occasion whose hours were 4:00 to 6:30 in the evening. Although if started out slow for book sales, we wound up selling 14 books in the 90 minutes we were there. We felt like it was a successful adventure.

There were only 8 vendors at the event and the church offered free hot dogs, chips, drinks and a huge assortment of cupcakes! Although it was a small community, the response to our books was very favorable and the church was grateful we agreed to attend. Our most popular book this time was the “Camelino” book. We sold 5 of the books and had several persons interested in the “Ordinary People, Extraordinary God” series.
