The 2013 ZGWS Convention will be held in Provo, Utah, home of Brigham Young University. This year, the theme of the convention will be Zane Grey at the Movies. Our own member, James D’Arc of BYU will host, introduce, and show 7 movies made from Zane Grey novels including Western Union, Thunder Mountain, Wild Horse Mesa, The Border Legion, and others. If you’ve never heard Jim introduce a Zane Grey movie, you’re in for a real treat!
The tentative agenda is as follows:
Date | Time | Event/Activity | |
Sunday, June 16 | Afternoon Evening | Registration Opening Banquet | |

As members know, we normally will have a After Convention Trip to another interesting site or locale, for those wanting to see more of the area. This year, we’ll be seeing Bryce Canyon National Park, Kanab, Utah and the area on the north rim of the Grand Canyon that Grey visited, and then the Lodge on the North Rim, Grand Canyon National Park. Look for more details soon.
Contact Terry Bolinger at tbolinger@zgws.org if you need any more information.
So, come to Provo, UT in 2013- you won’t be sorry!
