A “Booknic” at John E. Ford K-8 in Jacksonville, Florida?
October 29th, 2009
In mid April, when many of the children from more northerly climes are still wearing coats at recess, the children of John E. Ford K-8, in Jacksonville, Florida are enjoying their annual RIF “Booknic” distribution. With high temperatures of 79 degrees, and the grass well green, the children of John E. Ford RIF enjoy their final book distribution in a festive outdoor setting. Yes, the final book distribution is held outside awash in the Florida sunshine, enjoyed in a picnic setting in the company of the children’s family members and other local community leaders. It’s a great way to end a RIF year. And it is definitely a reflection of their Account Coordinator’s approach; Kelli Heath is an extremely dedicated Account Coordinator and possesses a one of a kind, fun loving personality. She constantly strives to make the book distributions as memorable and as engaging as possible like one mid-year distribution, which was Chinese New Year themed and covered by closed circuit news. A favorite event is also a Pumpkin Parade with costumes depicting favorite book characters!
Happy reading!
