Rotary Reads
On Wednesday, July 8, President Ron Furman read to 16 children at the Tunkhannock Public Library (TPL) as part of the new Rotary District 7410 Rotary Reads Initiative for 2015-2016. President Ron read two books with help from his granddaughter Katie, who helped turn the pages of the big book. There was a Farm theme for the event, so after the reading, they all sang Old MacDonald Had a Farm. Ron then got to help the children make a cow out of a paper bag and cut-outs.
Last year, some of the money donated by the Club to the TPL was used to purchase books for children. This year, the Club has donated specifically for a book for the Rotary Reads program and is also donating a copy of the Josh the Baby Otter water safety book to the Library for their collection.
