For the last three years we have been participating in the Guys Read Program at Bayside Elementary School in Virginia Beach. Our lodge members volunteer to read to children and we also participate in related events. The kids love us when we show up with the dictionaries. We enjoy the positive response from teachers and students.

We have done this for several years with many Club members participating. All participants are thrilled with the reception of the students to the idea of owning their own book and immediately open it. It’s a wonderful project, third graders receive it with excitement!

We love the kids in our community and plan this program every year. It has been a good bridge between the teachers and community leaders of our local area.

It is a pleasure to be working with you for another year. Best wishes for your continued success.

The Club have been doing this project for over 10 years. The club loves to help the children on our area. Our Club members put together events to help raise the money.

This is the first year our club is participating in The Dictionary Project. We think this a great project and plan to do the project again.

This is about the 3rd or 4th year for it. The children really enjoy getting and using the books. Love it!!!!!!!!!

Our club visits each school in November and distributes the books to third graders. This is an annual special project. I believe we have been participating for five years now. The students are always thrilled to get the books.

We go into each class room and talk to the students; explaining the program and distribute the dictionaries. We also give them a letter to take home for their parents that explains the program. This is our 3rd year in the program. I think the project is great and you are a wonderful organization.

Our club looks forward to another year of presenting these to our 3rd graders. They really enjoy the program we do for them. This will be the fourth year for our club to do this. The teachers look forward to our program every year. We appreciated the fact that an organization like yours puts the interests of our kids at the forefront of importance.... Read More
