Amazing Race, Dinner and Auction
Read for Literacy’s Amazing Race, Dinner and Auction presented by United HealthCare Community Plan is just around the corner. We are now accepting registrations for teams of four to join us in the HUNT on Saturday, April 9 at 4 pm. The event starts and finishes at The Pinnacle, 1772 Indian Wood Circle, Maumee, Ohio. Teams will drive around town taking photos of clues, earn points and return to The Pinnacle for a wonderful buffet dinner, raffle and, Live and Silent Auctions! The fun and camaraderie make this event one of the most amazing events to participate in. Families are welcome to participate too. This year’s Mistress of Ceremony is Kristian Brown from WTVG 13abc. Organizers said that Brown is sure to keep the more than 300 expected guests moving all night long. For $160, teams of four are treated to dinner, dessert, coffee stations and a take-home bag of goodies from local vendors. According to Event Chair Bonnie Berland, “The Amazing Race is a wonderful way for people to come together for a fun evening and at the same time support Literacy programs in our community. All of the funds raised will allow Read for Literacy to serve more students with books, training materials and other items that make them successful in the classroom and in life!” Read for Literacy works to provide a range of literacy services and trainings that enable children, adults and families the opportunity to achieve success. In Lucas, Wood and Seneca counties over 39,000 families read at or below the basic 4th grade reading level. Our goal is to provide quality programming, appropriate reading material and books to help our students gain literacy knowledge. When we work together, our students will find success in saying “I CAN READ!” To learn more about this event and to discuss literacy needs in our community please contact Cheryl Rothschild at 419-242-7323 ext. 18 or by email at [email protected]
