WOW!!!!  What an awesome day!  The 2nd Annual Free Ice Cream Social, held on Saturday, June 19, was a HUGE success.

Over 800 free ice cream cones were scooped, doubling last year's total.  We raised over $1,900 from corporate sponsorships, $1,300 in Scholastic book credits, $1,600 from private donations, and an entire Kart full of great, new children's books!   

We would like to thank the 100s of volunteers that made this day happen, especially WBCL radio, dozens of corporate sponsors, Madeline's Toybox, PEto the "Almost" Magnificent, the Conglomernotes, and of course our own Kate's Kart volunteers.


GREAT NEWS!  Due to your generosity, our Karts are well stocked with all types of books.  Our greatest need at this time is for monetary donations to purchase additional Soft Cloth Books and Board Books.  Thank you!!
