And we're off!
The official launch of the 2011 Let's Read program was on Sunday, September 25, 2011 at Word on the Street in Victoria Park. Hundreds of kids and their families join us to make buttons and hear about the program.
In the afternoon, members of the Waterloo Siskins hockey team and their mascot, Captain Crunch, helped us to officially launch the program.
We gave away lots of treats, read some of the book and handed out free tickets for a Waterloo Siskins hockey game. Thanks Siskins!
We all had a great time at the launch and we hope you enjoy the book as much as we do.
