“When April Morton (reporter, WDIV Local 4) from the news was here to film the Read to Rover special, we spent some time chatting about how she would like to come back in March because March is “Reading Month.” Some of the parents have also been mentioning having some sort of Read to Rover event or partnership, so we did some research and reached out to Scholastic. We figured we had an excellent space to host a book fair right here…” says Aubrey Cherry, FAMD Volunteer Coordinator & Programs Manager.

“The main goal of this event is community engagement, promotion for FAMD, and networking. We want to draw more kids and schools in and get involved in future programs. We also want people to come to the building who may have not been here before.”
