Clouser’s background includes over thirty years of experience in founding and leading a nonprofit youth sports organization. In 2019, he and his wife, Sandy, embarked on a new adventure, traveling across the United States in an RV with their golden retriever, Youkilis. This lifestyle change was motivated by Clouser’s desire to honor the legacy of his mother, Loretta Magary, who pursued her own journeys in the 1980s. Through their travels, Clouser aims to volunteer and share the stories of the many individuals they encounter along the way, focusing on the positive impact of “many little people” in various fields such as sports, spirituality, music, and food.
Clouser has authored several books that reflect his experiences and insights gained during his travels. His book, “Four Paws and Six Wheels Across America: The Adventures of Youkilis, the Golden Retriever,” invites readers to join Youkilis on his escapades across the country, celebrating the joy of exploration and connection with others.
In “The Journey of My Mother’s Son: Volume I (Many Random Thoughts from the Road),” Clouser shares heartfelt reflections. This book emphasizes the importance of perspective, compassion, and embracing the present moment, drawing inspiration from his golden retriever’s carefree attitude.
Additionally, Clouser has created an interactive coloring book titled “Color with Youk,” allowing readers of all ages to add their own artistic flair to Youkilis’ adventures.
Another significant work, “The Beauty of a Diamond, Through the Eyes of a Coach,” addresses the ethical challenges within youth sports, advocating for positivity and mutual respect. This book serves as a guide for parents and coaches, highlighting valuable life lessons learned through sports participation and volunteerism.
The upcoming signing event at Kroger offers a unique opportunity for fans and community members to meet Clouser, learn more about his works, and gain insights from his varied experiences. Clouser’s focus on storytelling and community engagement resonates with readers, making his books not only a source of entertainment but also a platform for inspiring positive change.
