 Tuesdays with Dave will occasionally consist of an article I will have written for an online news service called local-news.ca.  In rI'm excited to start a journey of writing stories about people who have followed the stages of the Hero's Journey and whose stories are an inspirational extension of the lessons learned in A Hero's Journey: Beyond Little Norway and Olympia Sports Camp.  Let me introduce you to Jason Riley. By the societal scorecard Jason can be seen as a hero as he played CFL football for more than a decade after winning a National football championship at UBC, but as with any true heroic story, the person that Jason has become along his journey is far more important than the personal accolades. His journey is captured in his new book Taming Mad Do g. It's a great read. Here's my story. You can also read the story online at local-news,ca Copies of  A Hero's Journey: Beyond Little Norway and Olympia Sports Camp  are available at The Different Drum

 Proud to announce that one year ago today my second book, A Hero's Journey: Beyond Little Norway and Olympia Sports Camp was released. I've had a lot of support, from my Publisher Friessen Press, to Leo Rautins  writing a beautiful foreword, to Dave Grace, Greg Rogers and the staff at Olympia helping make this book part of the legacy of the 50 summers at camp. This journey we are on now is to get the amazing stories of Olympians out, but also to let the reader know that you will learn a lot about yourself by following the journey of others.  If you have bought a book, i'd love to hear from you so I can share your views on sharing the passion of others. If you haven't bought a book, check out the information below. It's a great read, and a great keepsake. Let's light the flame and let it burn! Copies of  A Hero's Journey: Beyond Little Norway and Olympia Sports Camp  are available at The Different Drummer BookStore on Locust St in Burlington. Or if you live
