Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,

We celebrated the spooky season with 1,224 kids, 401 volunteers, 222 parents, and 31 teachers & staff at our October reading clubs. Thank you to our fantastic magicians, who showed us that seeing isn't always believing!

In November there will be "Fun and Games" at our College Spirit reading clubs. Sign up now, and don't forget to wear your college gear with pride on Saturday, November 12th!
