Oh, the people you’ll meet…
CYT Lafayette was asked by their local Target to participate in their Read Across America Campaign. Target works with the National Education Association in supporting Read Across America- the largest nationwide celebration of children’s reading. The date coincides with Dr. Seuss’ birthday, March 2nd.
“Since our spring show is Seussical Jr., the local Target asked if we could send out the “Cat in the Hat” to read stories to the kids. CYT Lafayette’s very own Victoria Manning showed up at Target in full costume and was able to walk the store inviting kids to come read Dr. Seuss books. We were able to play the sound track to Seussical while Victoria read books to the kids. The store was so thankful that we were able to attend and make the event that much better,” said Gerald Broussard, Board Chair for CYT Lafayette.
