TYSON FOODS AWARDS GRANT
TO IMAGINATION LIBRARY OF CARROLL COUNTY
Imagination Library of Carroll County is pleased to announce that a $7,500 grant was received from Tyson Foods to support free monthly developmental books mailed to the homes of registered children from birth to 5 years old living in Carroll County. Tyson has registration forms available for all its employees at the Berryville and Green Forest plants. This service project started in Holiday Island in 2017 by the Holiday Island Rotary Club and is currently administered by not only the Rotary Club of Holiday Island, but also the Eureka Springs and Berryville Rotary Clubs for Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library under the name Carroll County Youth Literacy Rotary Foundation.
"Literacy is so important and with COVID-19 disrupting classroom education, books in the hands of children at home is even more vital,” explained Darla McCoy, Carroll County Learning Center.
“Literacy during early childhood is so important when it comes to child development,” said Amy Rochow, Green Forest ABC Preschool teacher. “It helps children develop vocabulary and comprehension, encourages imagination and creativity, teaches them about different topics, and sets them up to succeed. Furthermore, when a parent reads with their child, it gives them a moment to connect one-on-one and helps to create a lasting bond between them. “
Meleia Soab, Eureka Springs Pre-K Coordinator and 1st Grade Teacher added, “The sooner they read; the sooner they learn. “
Since its inception in Carrol County, 944 children in the county have benefitted from this program and approximately 700 are currently registered. To register, call 479-244-9595 or go on-line at imaginationlibrary.com. Donations can also be made online at imaginationlibrary.com – please specify the Carroll County affiliate (AR-Carroll). $25 will pay for one child to receive one book/month for a whole year. “Like” or “Follow” our Facebook page at Imagination Library Carroll County,

THE BARN QUILTED
The Holiday Island Barn now has a painted quilt on its side. This is the first of 12 we need for our barn to be part of a Carroll County Quilt Trail; other surrounding counties already have trails.
Much effort went into its completion. The quilt design was a collaboration between the Holiday Island Art and Quilt Guilds. I want to thank Miles and Sharon Schultz for constructing the 4X4 board and Miles supervising the installation. Thank you to Denise Marta Burch for the beautiful artwork. She can be reached at www.RidgelineArts.com. Thank you to Kenny and James from our Road Department for their careful installation.
The project was made possible by donations from the Friends of the Barn, The H.I. Homeowners Association., and the H.I. Quilt Guild.
Many thanks to all involved.
