One week from today on the Armory Lawn a group of students from the Washington County Career Center will be holding an event "Sowing the Seeds of Literacy" focused on promoting the importance of reading to young children.
The event, which will be held on May 2, from 5-9 p.m., is a collaboration between Building Bridges 2 Careers and of students who call themselves "Students Solving Problems".
At the event, SSP members will be reading selected story books including:
"Wally Takes a Weather Walk" by Bree Sunshine Smith
