WHAT BOOK GOT YOU HOOKED??

First Book is giving away 50,000 new books to children in need! The state with the most votes wins - it takes just a couple of minutes to make a difference.

Simply go to the website, Firs t Book and vote. NC is now ranked 4th! We are so close!

The Kids Connect listserv now reaches over 1200 folks - think of the impact we could make if each of us took a minute to vote!!

Please forward this email to friends, teachers, group leaders - ask them to vote and to help spread the word. It would be amazing if we could make the difference and push NC to victory!

Voting ends September 30th - and you can vote more than once! Please take a couple of minutes to help NC's children experience the joy of reading!

Looking for something to do??

Check out the City's Parks and Rec site. They provide programs for the whole family. These include preschool classes, pre-teen programs, and free public programs. Some of the programs they offer are night hikes, constellation and paddle programs.
