After a short meeting with all available seats filled and election of officers completed, CCGS members, Gwen King and Janie Oickle editor of Gwen's book, gave a presentation on the soon to be released book, in time for Christmas, called "LORNEVILLE, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia - From Wilderness to Busy Seaside Community".
All attending enjoyed, and much conversation and queries were put forth as to contents of such a publication and availability, which was answered to as gone to the printers and will be for sale soon.
