Hello To All Our Wonderful BookPALS and Friends! As of today, June 15th, I will no longer serve as the Coordinator for Minnesota BookPALS, having accepted a position with a business media consultancy. Dry work, I'm sure, compared to the wonderful folk I've had the privilege to work with these past years.
Our Minnesota Chapter has come a long way since our inception in 1998, and our original Coordinator, Patty McDonald, has had no small part in helping us stay an active, vital chapter. Patty continues to run Minnesota StoryLine, and she'll work closely with our new Coordinator, Delta Giordano.
Delta has been an extraordinary volunteer with BookPALS since our inception, serving as a reader, a Minnesota StoryLine reader, a Special Events reader and she served on the "Friends of BookPALS" Committee for the past two years. She brings a great deal of experience, creativity, energy and ethusiasm to the position - and she's a talented actress, to boot!
Please join me in welcoming Delta to Minnesota BookPALS. I myself will continue to volunteer as a BookPAL - of course! - and I look forward to running into my fellow volunteers in the future!
With gratitute for all you do for our children,
Gabrielle
