Way back, when Voices of Rotary was just getting started, Elise Hamner created the very first Voices podcast on the Gift of Literacy. It is an excellent piece well worth your time to take a second listen.
It starts with the excitement of kids getting off the bus, going into the gym, and having firefighters, and Rotarians read books to them.
“What we are reading today is a book called, “On Account of the Gum.” Let’s take a look and dive into this book. Somebody’s sleeping not ready to wake up, but they accidentally must have fallen asleep with some gum in their mouth. That’s the gum right there that you got in your hair.”
So take a minute out of your busy day, put your feet up and come along on this magical journey.

What a great idea to link with firefighters for the reading aloud portion of this program. Talk about leveraging and spreading the Rotary “brand.” Great idea!
