Patch partners with author James Patterson's READKIDDOREAD
Patch launched a very cool initiative today across all our sites, a Summer Reading List for kids in partnership with number 1 bestselling author James Patterson's READKIDDOREAD. READKIDDOREAD is a program that encourages kids to read more, not only in the summer months but throughout the year. Patterson is incredibly passionate about the importance of parents getting their kids reading, and the impact that will have on their lives. I can think of no person or organization that is a better fit for Patch's audience than James Patterson and READKIDDOREAD, and the Summer Reading List is only the beginning. We'll have programs running throughout the year that will engage parents and kids in the joys of reading -- and we want them to tell us how it's going on their local Patch. Check out Patterson's intro video here...and let's get kids reading!

1. Hello! My name is Gloria and I was wondering if you guys could post
an article about an Open Bible Seminary that I heard will be taking
place this July 21 in the Crystal Cathedral. I was in the Block
shopping when some people came up to me to invite me to this seminar.
It was very interesting and encouraging to hear how there are people
trying to bring back the Christians together and awaken the community.
I would really like to hear more about this event and am sure others
will like to hear of it too. Thank you so much!
