The citizens of Gander met the stranded passengers with an overwhelming display of friendship and goodwill. \nOver the course of four days\, many of the passengers developed friendships with Gander residents that they expect to last a lifetime. This book recounts the inspiring story of the residents of Gander\, Canada\, whose acts of kindness have touched the lives of thousands of people and been an example of humanity and goodwill. \n  \nCopies of this book are available at the library.  \n  \nOur discussion will be on Zoom.  Please register here to receive the meeting details: \n  \n\n\n \n \n Nonfiction Book Club Registration - September 2026\n \n \n your nameemail*\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://baconfreelibrary.org/event/nfsept26/ LOCATION:Bacon Free Library\, 58 Eliot Street\, Natick\, MA\, 01760\, United States CATEGORIES:Adult Events,Featured GEO:42.285064;-71.346109 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Bacon Free Library 58 Eliot Street Natick MA 01760 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=58 Eliot Street:geo:-71.346109,42.285064 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261008T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261008T120000 DTSTAMP:20260516T163348Z CREATED:20260516T163340Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260516T163348Z UID:54785-1791457200-1791460800@baconfreelibrary.org SUMMARY:History Book Club DESCRIPTION:Join us for a virtual discussion of:  TBA \nCopies of the book will be available at the Bacon Free Library.  \nOrder your own copy \nFor details on how to attend this virtual meeting via Zoom\, please contact director@natickhistoricalsociety.org \nThe Zoom link to the discussion will be sent at a later date.  URL:https://baconfreelibrary.org/event/history-book-club-2026-october-2/ CATEGORIES:Adult Events,Featured END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261009T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261009T120000 DTSTAMP:20260721T175257Z CREATED:20260721T175257Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260721T175257Z UID:55355-1791543600-1791547200@baconfreelibrary.org SUMMARY:Harvest Pumpkin Party Concert DESCRIPTION:Join Elijah T.
