The members of the Yelm Lions Club distribute the dictionaries directly to the children in the classrooms, with the aid and support of the school district and teachers. Our teachers now teach from the dictionaries and don’t buy their own for the schools. It is pretty exciting. Been doing this for about 5-6 years. Introduced it to the Lions of Washington State. It’s well received. We get around 300 letters from kids thanking us… with lots of misspellings. You do great. Just keep doing it.
