FORE!

Wow! Been a while since I updated, but I am going to try to blog regularly so everyone can keep up with what we are doing. We have now distributed well over 20,000 books... with thousands more to go.
We are still distributing to the Youngstown Elementary schools through Youngstown Stars- a great organization run by April Brown through the Neil Kennedy Recovery Clinic that does after school programming.

Coming up we are hosting a bookfair at Barnes & Noble in the Shops at Boardman Park on May 15 with the Ohio Jewelery and Metal Arts guild. They will have an Artists' Reception at 7 pm and we will host a storytime in the kids department for the little ones. If you have shopping to do, come in that day and tell them you are shopping for First Book- Barnes & Noble will make a donation to us!! Thanks!

We are also gearing up for our 2nd annual golf outing on August 8 at 8 am. We need hole sponsors, prize donations, and most of all, GOLFERS! Join us and help get new books to kids! The money all goes to books- we have no overhead, we're all volunteers, and we have no costs! What more can you ask for? The outing will be at Bedford Trails in Coitsville, Ohio. Thank you, Andrew for being so great to work with!

There will be many more opportunities to see what wonderful work we are doing because of the great people who support us! Keep checking in for updates to find out when and where!
