We will also be asking bath school Boazds to adopt a <br />similaz proclamation, declaring April 10-17, 2000, as Read-A-Week in Orange County. <br />As we discussed last week, I'll be prepared to present the proclamation for consideration <br />and give a 2-3 minute update. Of course, I will be happy to provide a longer report at any <br />time if the Board wishes. <br />I'm enclosing a draft packet about Read-A-Week for your information. We aze <br />encouraging every school, community group, business, and faith community to set aside <br />some time for a reading activity during that week, and to let the committee know the <br />results of that activity. I hope that there may be ways for Orange County government and <br />its agencies to participate, too. <br />Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for all of your support for this <br />initiative and other adult literacy efforts. I look forwazd, as always, to seeing you on <br />Apri14. <br />Sincerely, <br />.. <br />Lucy L s, irector <br />Orange County Literacy Council <br />cc: Randy Bridges, Chair, Orange County READS <br />Enclosures <br />
