Reading Fest is Coming!
"Read S'More Books" at Camp Carrollton
When: Wednesday, January 27 6:30-8:00
Where: Carrollton Elementary School
Who: All CAES families are invited to come participate in our reading activities.
What: This is an evening to come and experience the joys of reading with your children. We will have reading games, camp sing-alongs, reading around a campfire, flashlight sight word tag, reading computer games, and much more! All CAES students who attend will be eligible to enter a raffle to win prizes.
Do I need to bring anything:
1. We are going to be doing a book swap. Bring a gently used book that your child has already read, and you can swap it out for a "new to you" book at our book swap table.
2. We are also having a food drive to benefit Christian Outreach. Now that the holidays are over, we want to help restock the pantries of those who really need it. Please bring a non-perishable food item to donate. For every item you donate, you will be given a raffle ticket to be entered to win out special "Camp Carrollton Family Pack".
