Avid readers and fans of space exploration can join a Spring Mill State Park book club this winter to discuss a biography of Mitchell astronaut Gus Grissom.
The club plans on meeting Jan. 6 and Feb. 3. Both meetings will take place at 10 a.m. in the downstairs lobby of Spring Mill Inn.
The purpose of the club is to chat about “Calculated Risk: The Supersonic Life and Times of Gus Grissom,” published in 2016 and written by George Leopold.
Participants do not need to have read the book before the first meeting.
Copies of the book are available for purchase in the park office.
At the second meeting, Leopold will discuss his book on a conference phone call with attendees.
For more information, contact interpretive naturalist Wyatt Williams at (812) 849-3534 or [email protected].
Park admission during the event is $7 per vehicle for in-state residents and $9 per vehicle for out-of-state residents.
Spring Mill State Park (stateparks.IN.gov/2968.htm) is at 3333 State Road 60 East, Mitchell, 47446.
