In May, Alpenglow Sports celebrates the second annual Community Book Initiative, during which all proceeds will benefit nonprofit Tahoe City Friends of the Library.
The event highlights 20 books chosen in collaboration with 10 respected community members, admired for their mountain, community, environmental and/or social leanings. The theme for the event is resilience and all titles feature stories of extreme resilience and hopefully will elicit inspiration, conversation and connection in our region.
On May 26, Alpenglow Sports will host the culminating event of the book initiative: a presentation by Lauren DeLaunay Miller, the editor of “Valley of Giants: Stories from Women at the Heart of Yosemite Climbing.” The presentation is free and open to the public. Beverage sales from the event will also benefit Tahoe City Friends of the Library.
Books are available for purchase both at the store and online. | alpenglowsports.com
