Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,

I hope you'll join us this Saturday for the July 9th "Independence and Growing Up" Reading Clubs! A big thank you to the scores of volunteers (including our new volunteers from the JetSet Society) who've signed up so far -- we're nearly full at Magnolia and Esperanza. Noble Elementary and Gratts Elementary still have plenty of spots available, though -- please RSVP for one of these schools by clicking here

There are only a few days left to sign up, so make sure to reserve yourself a spot!



Join the JetSet Society "Great Race!"

Join your fellow R2K volunteers on July 17th for the JetSet Society Scavenger Hunt - The Great Race! This is your opportunity to discover Los Angeles, get to know some new people and have a great time! Teams of participants will race around Los Angeles using only public transportation to collect items, answer trivia, and accomplish tasks to score points. You will find yourself in places that you never knew existed!

To register for The Great Race, please visit the JetSet website here. If you're interested in being on a Reading to Kids team for the event, please also contact Social Committee Co-Chair Lisa Hochberg at LisaHochberg@readingtokids.org.

Reading to Kids is delighted to be partnering with the JetSet Society! If you are reading this email, we know you are interested in extraordinary opportunities and making a difference.  Please take a moment to check out JetSet Society, a supporting organization of Reading to Kids which plans extraordinary events for young professionals in Los Angeles.

Membership in JetSet is free, and it hosts social, cultural, educational, and just plain fun events for its membership of over 7,000. Upcoming JetSet Society events include sailing lessons, networking events, a night at the Magic Castle, and an Evening at the Disney Concert Hall.  Please visit www.JetSetSociety.us, visit the L.A. page, and sign up for your free membership to receive e-mail updates about great events.

Thanks -- I hope we see you this weekend!

Best,
