Literacy Program excels in Silver City, NM

Many people in Silver City volunteer for a wide variety of programs. I am on the Board of Literacy Link - Leamos. We are the local literacy program located in the Silver City Library on Cooper Street. Our many volunteers assist the local community in a large variety of ways. We read to children in pre-school and give them books. We teach English and Spanish. We match learners with teachers for private tutoring needs, and a host of other things. I am very proud to be a part of this highly successful organization. The people involved in running it are of the highest quality.

Leamos = "We Read".

In February 2010 we are having our annual "Love Your Library" Day. Each year we host this event where families come and are able to do fun things including, receive a free book, win prizes, play on-line games, listen to local musicians, learn about the Library, play Bingo, create works of art, eat treats, and be LOUD in the library! It's a ton of fun and a very popular community event. If you're in town, please be sure to stop by and say hello! If you'd like to learn more about volunteering at the program, call 575-388-0892 or on-line at: http://www.gilarangers.com/leamos.htm Saying of the Day: Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. - Margaret Mead
