Teleconference

Books for Babies® will be hosting a TELECONFERENCE on April 13th from 9:30am-12 noon. All Books for Babies® volunteers are encouraged to attend.

This will provide an opportunity to discuss issues, concerns and ideas for future growth.

Please let Linda Tarbett know if you can participate.


New Calendar

The Provincial Advisory Committee is pleased to announce a new calendar to be included in the Initial Package. A tentative date for the Calendar Launch is May 15, 2002. If you are planning to be in Corner Brook on that date please come along and help us celebrate this event.


Tragedy - Northern Peninsula

Angela Welsh, a Books for Babies® coordinator on the Northern Peninsula, was killed in a car accident last month. She was a great person to work with. She will be sadly remembered and missed by all who had the opportunity to know her.
