Co Springs Mom Collective

06/03/2026

Here are the details for June’s Co Springs Mom Collective Read & Gather Book Club.

📖 JUNE BOOK CLUB INFO:
One Golden Summer by Carley Fortune
“Good things happen at the lake. That’s what Alice’s grandmother says, and it’s true. Alice spent just one summer there at a cottage with Nan when she was seventeen—it’s where she took that photo, the one of three grinning teenagers in a yellow speedboat, the image that changed her life.

Now Alice lives behind a lens. As a photographer, she’s most comfortable on the sidelines, letting other people shine. Lately though, she’s been itching for something more, and when Nan falls and breaks her hip, Alice comes up with a plan for them both: another summer in that magical place, Barry’s Bay. But as soon as they settle in, their peace is disrupted by the roar of a familiar yellow boat, and the man driving it.”

We’ll gather for conversation and a book-themed craft on Sunday, June 28th, from 1:00PM-2:00PM at Quail Lake Park, 915 E Cheyenne Mountain Blvd., Colorado Springs, 80906

✨SIGN UP at the link in bio!

Be sure to check out all of the image slides above to see the selected books for the rest of the year.

I look forward to reading and gathering with you!
