Brenda Viner, presented a  brief and very uplifting overview of the Tucson Festival of Books that took place this past weekend March 13-14. She reiterated the generosity of the business folks in Tucson could not be matched anywhere else.  Authors, writers, literary groups were just a few who whole-heartily jumped at the opportunity to be part of this wonderful event.
Our own Rotary district had a booth at this event with book signings and sponsored donations of dictionaries to children in Tucson. From a quick view of the parking lots and the crowds, this festival appeared to be huge success for everyone this year!

Last year this Festival donated $200,000 to promote literacy!
