scrabble scramble

The Rowan County Literacy Council’s 10th Annual Scrabble Scramble is scheduled for Tuesday, April 30 at 5:30 p.m. at the Holiday Inn. The evening includes a meal and three rounds of team Scrabble.  The Friends are willing to sponsor 2 teams of 10 players from staff and friends this year (they’ve previously sponsored one).

PLAYERS ARE NEEDED FOR THE FRIENDS TEAM!
If you would like to participate, please contact Beverly Gaston.  Please spread the word about the Scramble to friends and ask them to consider getting tickets to play—the event is $30 per person. (Staff and Friends who play on the Friends’ team(s) have their tickets paid by the Friends.)

a BIG THANK YOU to all

I found this e-mail hanging out in my “drafts” folder awaiting a final head count for the programs.  Sorry I missed putting this in News & Notes, but I wanted to give credit to everyone who had a hand in making these programs happen.  : )

Thanks,

April

Money $mart Week
A big thank you to all staff for helping promote our programs for Money Smart Week 2013.  We had over 100 participants in our programs ranging from recycled crafts to gardening on a budget.  A special thank you to Tara for helping set up; Dennis for helping tear down; and Gretchen, Melody, and Pat T. for all of their help in between!  I also appreciate the lovely staff donations for the Swap Shop.  Things are always better when we work together!
