Kicking off the March Break with "The Royal" Treatment!

County Kids Read consistently aims to create welcoming, accessible opportunities to reveal the power of "𝒂 π’ƒπ’π’π’Œ π’Šπ’ π’†π’—π’†π’“π’š π’„π’‰π’Šπ’π’…'𝒔 𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒅". The generous support of our community partners and local friends is vital to helping young people discover the magic that stories and books can unleash.

This year, the β€œMarch Break Chill Fest” at The Royal Hotel in Picton provided County Kids Read with a cozy story-time setting in "The Parlour". This special event brought families together to simply enjoy the warmth of a caring community.

Together with The Department of Illumination, County Kids Read thanks all of the enthusiastic families who brought wonderful energy to this gathering; thanks also to those who contributed donations to our organizations.

And a huge β€œThank you” to The Royal Hotel! The Royal graciously opened its doors and shared its beautiful spaces with us on this day. We look forward to planning other opportunities for local families to receive β€œThe Royal” treatment!
