Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,

June arrives tomorrow, which means our June 9th reading clubs are just 9 days away. We still need 42 more volunteers, so sign up now!

We especially have open spots on our Operations Teams. Please let us know if you can volunteer for any of the following roles:

- GLC at Alta Loma, Gratts, Magnolia, Politi, or White
- Training Coordinator at Gratts, Los Angeles, Mac. Park, Magnolia, or White
- Check-in helper at Alta Loma or Mac. Park
- Site Coordinator at any school!

Even if your school is full, if you can help in the above then please e-mail info@readingtokids.org and we'll add you in.

These smaller summer reading clubs are the best times to step into any of these important roles - all training will be pleasantly provided!

(If you signed up for the reading clubs but can't join us, please cancel your RSVP so that another volunteer can read with us.)

Flyer for Politi Resource Fair

Politi Elementary is hosting the Youth Policy Institute College and Community Resource Fair this Saturday morning and they can use our help!

This event should be a lot of fun- the goals are to let parents know about the resources and programs available at Politi and encourage kids to consider college!

The fair is from 9am-12:30pm. We are looking for volunteers to table at the Reading to Kids booth, volunteers to help direct parents, and volunteers to participate in Reading Circle and STEM workshops.

Click this link for directions to Politi Elementary, and email us at info@readingtokids.org with:
1) how long you can volunteer

PAINTED STAIRWAY HIKE IN SILVER LAKE
THIS SUNDAY, JUNE 3RD

Reading to Kids volunteers hiking in Hollywood

Join us for an urban exploration of the painted stairways of Silver Lake, a route that was highlighted recently in Los Angeles Magazine - http://www.lamag.com/mag-features/silver-lake-art-stairs/.

We will gather at 8:30 am this Sunday, June 3 at Sunset Triangle Plaza on Sunset between Edgecliff and Maltman. The hike will be led by Mark May.

The full route is 6.7 miles but there are several places en route where hikers can easily return to the starting place. We will allow plenty of time for photos on the way. We should be done by 12 noon. Parking is on Sunset (free on Sundays) and adjoining streets. You can RSVP on our Facebook event or simply show up that Sunday morning!
