Turks & Caicos Islands

" Just as a Rotary and our eRotary Club is more than a gathering of people, dictionaries are more than a compiling of words. When we went to Providenciales to work with the Provo Rotary Club in extending The Dictionary Project to local third graders, we found that words were a beginning key to unload the joy of education. Chil d ren appreciate gifts of any kind, especially gifts that are bright in color and have a picture of the world on the cover, but the gift of words and their meanings unleashes a joy that will not diminish. It is the joy of true learning that is an on-going, growing and lasting gift which evenually a child gives to him or her self.  "   -- Joe Kagle
 

A attached is the photo you requested from our trip to the Turks & Caicos Islands (in the Caribbean Ocean) to give A Student's Dictionary to 500 third-graders there.

Our Rotary eClub worked in partnership with our "sister club", the Rotary Club of Providenciales, to do this project. Now that their club is excited about The Dictionary Project, we anticipate partnering with other clubs next year to initiate new projects. We also will continue to make sure that all our international dictionary projects are on-going, so that every year more kids get dictionaries.

Regards,

Larry
