Hi! Now that schools out, Independence Day celebration is over, would those of you that would like to meet in person suggest days and times to meet to explore how we can support existing literacy efforts within Calhoun County. Thinking maybe to meet at Willard Library upstairs or Uproot Market and Cafe downtown? Open to suggestions. Does morning, afternoon, or eve work best and is there a good time of week? Weekdays or weekends?
Month of August?

Great literacy job opp!
