Hello all,
As new President, I wanted to take a few moments to let you know what we
have done so far this year, and what is upcoming. We have had 3 golf events
this year with the final outing September 15th at Arrowhead. We have donated
our time and money to the ‘I AM Able Foundation’ event in May which supports
people with disabilities. On August 4th we had our Reading Phillies baseball
night, which was started to be a night for children. October 1st is our Day at the
Races at Delaware Park & Casino. Our last event of the year is the Reading
Holiday Parade in November. I would encourage everybody to participate in
these upcoming events. Our goal as a club is to be active in the community
and to raise as much money as possible for our children’s college scholarship
fund that we give out each year.
Hope to see you at an upcoming event.
Thank you,
Scott

Kids Learn All About Big Rigs in Berks
Gina Gasper | Web Producer | 69 News WFMZ
SPRING TWP., Pa -- There were big rigs of all kinds at the Penn State Berks campus today, all so kids could "touch a truck."
The event is sponsored by the Junior League of Reading and invites kids to get an insiders view of trucks, fire engines, heavy
equipment and more.
The children were able to climb on the vehicles and explore.
Some of the drivers tell 69 News that letting the kids honk the horns and enjoy themselves is refreshing.
"It breaks up the monotony of driving every day. It's a nice thing to get something different besides driving up and down the highway 12
hours a day seven days a week" said Dennis Purdy of Road Scholar Trucking Company.
The Junior League of Reading focuses on creating, improving, and expanding the resources available to all children in the area.
