Boys and Girls Club Day for Kids - Materials Available

ALSC members are once again invited to participate in the Boys & Girls Club Day for Kids celebration on September 20, 2008. BGC Day for Kids is a day set aside each year to celebrate America's children through the gift of meaningful time with a positive adult.

The Boys and Girls Clubs of America is interested in working with public libraries to participate in this celebration by distributing their complementary Making Memories Family Activity Calendar. In addition, libraries are encouraged to incorporate programming around BGC Day for Kids.

The mission of the Day is about galvanizing national attention on the importance of spending meaningful time with children, something libraries do so well all year long. Further information is available on the Boys and Girls Clubs Web site at http://www.dayforkids.org/

To receive your complementary Making Memories Family Activity Calendar (limit of 200), please contact Linda Mays in the ALSC office at 800-545-2433 x1398 or at lmays@ala.org.
