Lakes Literacy is a driving force for literacy in Burns Lake & the Lakes District. Our Task Force is always welcoming new community members to join us!
What does the Task Force do?
⭐ We are a group of community partners who work together to develop and coordinate initiatives that promote literacy and lifelong learning in our local community.
⭐ We collaborate with Burns Lake’s Literacy Outreach Coordinator to provide direction on projects and initiatives.
⭐ We coordinate local initiatives like: StoryWalks, Imagination Library, Community Bookshelves, and up until its recent retirement, the Words on Wheels (W.O.W.) Bus!
⭐ We also support other organizations in their literacy programming, such as Family Literacy Week and Summer Reading Club, coordinated by Burns Lake Public Library.
⭐ Lakes Literacy is supported by Decoda Literacy Solutions. We gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the Province of British Columbia through the Ministry of Municipal Affairs.
What is the commitment?
⭐ We meet approximately three times per year in Burns Lake. Our next meeting is taking place on October 27 at 10am at Burns Lake Public Library’s MPR.
