Shoppers of all ages are invited to 'Celebrate Reading' with Stones River Mall from noon to 3:00PM this Saturday (10/8/2016) in Center Court. The event will benefit Rutherford County Books from Birth, a program of the United Way of Rutherford and Cannon Counties.
This free event will feature an array of literary activities, including book readings from local authors, vendor booths from community partners, and an artisan craft fundraiser for Rutherford County Books from Birth. Mascots from select retailers will also compete in a Grand Spell Off to conclude the event.
Randy Allen, Director of Community Impact for United Way, said, "Thanks to the proceeds from this event, Rutherford County Books from Birth will continue fulfilling its mission of providing books to kids, ages zero to five, regardless of a child's socioeconomic status so that a relationship with literacy can begin at the earliest stage".
