Jeff Obermeyer
7 p.m. Sept. 22, Third Place Books
Obermeyer will talk about his book “Seattle Totems.” Before major-league professional sports came to the Northwest, Seattle had a rich minor-league sports history. In the winter, Saturday afternoons were for college football, but the nights were for hockey. From the late 1950s through the mid-1970s, hockey could only mean one thing — the Seattle Totems. Led by Guyle Fielder, the Totems won three Western Hockey League championships. The book store is located at 17171 Bothell Way NE, Lake Forest Park.
