On Friday, residents will have a chance to meet and greet local author George Frady at an event held to celebrate the launch of his new book.

Yawn’s Publishing on Friday, June 12 will host George Frady from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at 198 North Street in downtown Canton. Residents will have a chance to also pick up an autographed copy of “Memories of the Hunt,” which shares the author’s outdoor experiences with readers.

The outdoors has been part of his life since his grandfather taught Frady, who also has the nickname of “Cotton,” how to hunt many years ago. He was fortunate to be born and reared in a time when hunting and fishing was part of most family curriculum.

Frady graduated from the University of Georgia with a BBA degree in business management. While there, he played four years on the university baseball team, earning a scholarship for the last three. He is a charter member (one of twenty five) of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity on the university campus and was privileged to be inducted into the Cherokee County Hall of Fame in 2012 for his efforts in baseball.

Frady, who lives in Canton, started the first Travel Baseball Team in the county, and is a member of Trout Unlimited and the Georgia Chapter of the American Chestnut Foundation.
