Trunk or Treat Book Give-Away
The Rotary Club of Meriwether County partnered with the Meriwether County School System by supporting the school-sponsored Trunk or Treat event on October 22, 2022. The event was held in the front parking area of Unity Elementary School and Manchester High School.
The Trunk or Treat event was funded thru the Literacy for Learning, Living, and Leading (L4GA) grant received by the Meriwether County School System. The Trunk or Treat event is one of the many events planned to help improve literacy outcomes in our community.
Over 150 volunteers from schools, churches, and community organizations purchased and distributed Halloween candy from decorated cars and trunks. To enhance the reading experience, designated reading tents were staffed with community volunteers. At the same time, the L4GA team gave away over 8,000 dollars in new books to individuals, from the young and old alike.
