Join the Booked committee on Sunday, April 8 from 3:00-5:30 at the Fanlanden for our quarterly book discussion. The book chosen via twitter poll for this quarter is “Under the Lights and in the Dark: Untold Stories of Women’s Soccer” by our frequent guest and good friend, Gwendolyn Oxenham. We can confirm that Gwendolyn will be joining us via video stream and we will have a special appearance by one of the subjects of the book, former University of Portland star and Portland Thorns player, Dani Foxhoven! Dani's story of playing professional soccer in Russia is one of the more intriguing stories in the book which was recently featured in Sports Illustrated and the London Times. Dani is currently the Director of Media and Development at Lane United Football Club in Eugene, Oregon.

In addition to Dani's story, there are many incredible tales of women and the sacrifices they make to play the game they love and includes many Portland connections, highlighting former Thorns players as well as our own Rose City Riveters! Many copies are on hand at the Booked library to read. Doors will open at 1 PM for a viewing party for the Timbers match prior to the book talk, so come early and get a good seat! 

Space is limited. Please RSVP for this event. This event is free thanks to our 107 Independent Supporters Trust. Be a member today!
