Storybook Land 2014

The Fondy High Key Clubbers spent their Saturday afternoon corralling and entertaining hundreds of young people at their annual Storybook Land event. The event is geared to encourage reading in young people by bringing books to life through the acting and antics of the Fondy High Key Club members. Children of all ages (including parents) enjoy the carefree excitement of the Key Clubbers in their presentation of several classic storybooks. This year the group presented Snow White, Peter Pan, The Cat in the Hat, Beauty and the Beast, and a sing-a-long of “Old MacDonald.”

After touring through the different storybook lands, each child is given the opportunity to choose a book of their own to take home and read or have read to them. Through the generosity of the Key Club and their sponsors, children had the choice of many different age appropriate reading materials, from Sesame Street babies books to Flat Stanley, several historical and scientific learning books, and even The Babysitter’s Club. Young people were thrilled with the event and left with a renewed excitement toward the adventures of reading. Good job, Key Clubbers!

Fondy High Key Club to Present Storybook Land

Storybook Flyer 2014

It is time once again for the presentation of “Storybook Land” by the Fond du Lac High School Key Club on Saturday, February 22. This year’s stories include Peter Pan, Beauty and the Beast, Cowboy Cinderella, Cat in the Hat, and the song “Old McDonald.” Parents are encouraged to bring children ages 3 to 10 to watch and engage with the various stories as kids travel throughout the morning from one story to the next.

The doors will open at 9:00 AM, and tours will begin about every ten minutes from 9:00 until 12:00. A complete tour of all of the stories takes about one hour.

Each child, after experiencing all of the five stories, will receive a free children’s book, compliments of the Key Club. This event will take place at Fond du Lac High School, and all those attending are asked to enter in the main doors (Door 1) at the front of the building.

Please, come enjoy the presentation of these timeless classics in this free event open to all! A free-will donation of a canned good can would be appreciated but not required. The donations will go to the Fond du Lac Food Pantry.

The Key Club’s goal is to promote literacy in both young and old. Key Club is a service group of high school students, with the assistance of the Morning Kiwanis, who work together to enhance the well-being of others and to support their community through charity work.

There is no task that the club will not attempt if someone needs help. Consider supporting the Key Club’s cause by reading to children and bringing them to see this Storybook Land.
