A book for every 1st Grader

Once again, Altrusa of Montrose is teaming up with the Library and Rotary to enhance literacy for all the first grade students in our local school district. We're visiting each first grade classroom and handing out a free book (provided by our Altrusa club) to each child.

The children are also enjoying a field trip to the library, where they are issued a library card and learn about borrowing books as well as all the outstanding children's programs our library has to offer.

We know how important reading is to the future of these young children and are proud to be a part of this award-winning program.
