Spring has sprung! (Does anyone remember having a winter! It was more like spring for many of us.)
This is the last issue of First-Time Readers before the summer break. We are pleased with the response we have received from our readers. We like hearing from you by letter, phone, fax or e-mail.
We want to thank all those who have helped in any way with First -Time Readers. We offer a special thanks to the members of our editorial committee. They live and work in different areas of the province. Each member gives us ideas, stories and photos. They provide valuable contact with our readers.
We hope you have enjoyed First-Time Readers. We hope we will be back this fall with another issue. Meanwhile, keep on reading and learning. Set goals and follow you dreams.
