Events
Scrabble Fest
The National Scrabble Association has made the tournament available to Literacy Volunteers affiliates nationwide as a fundraiser, and we are approved and registered by Hasbro. Our purpose for holding this event is twofold:
-
We hope to promote the value of education and literacy through the use of this famous word game; and
-
We offer this event as an annual fundraiser for our program.
Tutor Training
The Basic Reading Tutor Training Workshop involves twelve hours of training, given over two, 6-hour sessions. We generally hold workshops on two consecutive Saturdays from 9:00am to 3:00pm. The workshop entails a step-by-step description of teaching methods, review of tutor materials, and role-play. Sessions are limited to 20 people so that all may actively participate.
Literacy Volunteers-Androscoggin’s Annual Meeting
Literacy Volunteers-Androscoggin’s Annual Meeting, held in June, is our yearly opportunity to recognize and celebrate the remarkable work of both our students and our volunteers. There are games to play, door prizes, a delicious buffet, and often a unique performance. Don’t miss this wonderful celebration of Literacy!
