I volunteer each summer at Camp Circle O'Friends for children and youth who have been effected by cancer. This June will be my sixth camp.

Several years ago, one of the campers wrote a story called Hope and the Dragon. Plans were made to publish the story as a children's books and donate the proceeds to cancer research. As of last summer, Matthew's book was available to read in hospital waiting rooms and there were plans to give it free of charge to children who were diagnosed with cancer.

Matthew is having a book signing at McNally Robinson in Saskatoon on Saturday, April 21st from 1:00 to 2:30 PM. He will also be signing his book at Chapters in Regina on Thursday, April 19th at 7 PM and is planning an appearance in Toronto. The cost of the book is $20. Camp Circle O'Friends is giving a book to every camper and volunteer at Camp 2007.
