The Dolly Parton Imagination Library and local director, Brittany Treadway, sends an invitation to all youth from birth to the age of five and family members to join in a special “Race For Reading” event on Saturday, September 20th, at the Deacons of Defense Park and Walking Trail in Jonesboro. 

Come from 10:00 am – 1:00 pm and receive a Dolly Golden Book for enrolling and take advantage of free sno-balls, rock painting, and a coloring contest. Also, Race For Reading participants who complete a mile around the walking trail will get an exciting prize. 

Celebrating 30 years,  Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is dedicated to inspiring a love of reading by gifting books free of charge to children from birth to age five, through funding shared by Dolly Parton and local community partners in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and the Republic of Ireland.
