Visiting Author Program Jocelyn Kelland

A huge thank you to Jocelyn Kelland for reading excerpts from her father Otto Kelland's book Dories and Dorymen.

 

Otto Kelland also wrote one of the most beloved Newfoundland songs of all time with “Let Me Fish Off Cape St.Mary’s”. Our choir did a beautiful job singing this song alongside Jocelyn. There were many teary eyes as residents described what that song meant to them personally. The opportunity to view one of Otto Kelland’s world renowned boat models was inspiring as well. Thank you to The Telegram and Sam McNeish for joining us for the afternoon!
