PIU Reading Booth at Guam Youthfest

P4210894  Last Saturday was the annual Guam Youthest at Skinner Plaza and, for the P42109082nd year in a row, PIU had a booth there. This year’s PIU booth was the Story Telling Tent sponsored by the PIU library and organized by PIU librarian Lisa Collins. We promised a story every 15 minutes and I think we did better than that. The tent featured several PIU staff and faculty, and prominent people from the community. We met a lot of people and had many opportunities to talk to them about what PIU can offer to the Guam communities.

Joyce and I took turns reading for about an hour.

We took our turn reading right before the Lieutenant Governor of Guam and his wife. She read “The Lorax” to the kids. We were also joined from time to time by some of the characters from the books.
