Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,
You won't need a compass to find the "Discovery and Adventure" Reading Clubs this Saturday! If you haven't already,
sign-up for one of the few remaining volunteer spots.
If you're signed up, but can't make this journey, please
click here to cancel
before 3pm on Friday so that someone else may take your place.

PRIZE PATROL!
We're starting to plan this year's events, and we need your help gathering prizes!
Our events are more fun and raise more money if we have
great prizes to award, raffle, and/or auction. Big prizes. Little prizes. Serious prizes. Silly prizes. We need them all! Check out our list of prizes from
last year's Silent Auction for ideas.
If you have any prizes, or you know where to get them, let us
know! The fun starts this May with our annual Legendary Bingo night, and we'd love to have something fabulous
for the grand prize winner -- anything unique or with an autograph is always welcome!
To help you get started, click these links for
tips on how to best approach a business or person to donate to our events, and a
donation form for the donor to complete.
In the past we have had gift certificates, products, services, and tickets to fun events. If you work at or have a connection with a restaurant, retail store, or for a company with products or services to offer,
please help us by asking for a donation to our
events.
Please also let Skylar know to whom you reach out
so we don't accidentally duplicate Special Events Committee
efforts in contacting businesses.

MUSICIANS WANTED
Every March,
musicians visit each school and perform for the kids. We have had a variety of performers from country singers to Korean drumming
troupes! If you or someone you know would like to share the gift of music with the kids and volunteers, please reply to this email.

Thanks, and we'll see you on Saturday!
