Description: The Literacy Council of Frederick County in participation with Frederick County Public Libraries is excited to be hosting our second read-a-thon from Jan. 1 to Feb. 11, 2012. Anyone from ages 1 to 100 can participate in this fun and meaningful event. On-line registration is now open. Participants commit to read by themselves for a specified amount of time or a specified number of books during the period. In advance, they will request pledges from friends and family to sponsor their reading. The more you read the more money you will raise! Every dollar raised will be used to buy books and other program materials for the students and tutors of the Council. At the final celebration on February 11th, we will be providing drinks and snacks to participants throughout the day. We will also have prizes donated to the event by local merchants to be awarded in multiple categories. KEYOTE from the Frederick Keys will appear during the afternoon. All participants who raise $20 or more will receive a tote bag. Celebration & prize awards on FEBRUARY 11, 2012 • 10:30 AM to 4:00 PM at C.
