Family Reading Traditions: Childhood Treasures Children form very close emotional

attachments to books during childhood. Take note of your children’s very favorite books as they grow, and once outgrown, set them aside. Gift wrap and present these treasures on your child’s 18th birthday. Source: familyreading.org

The Family Resource Centers in Tioga County are funded, in part, through a federal grant administered by the New York State Children and Family Trust Fund, a program of the NYS Office of Children and Family Services. Other funders include Tioga County Department of Social Services, Tioga County Youth Bureau, Floyd Hooker Foundation, Waverly Community Chest, and Cornell Cooperative Extension of Tioga County.

Please consider joining our Planning Committees! Your input is needed. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to participate. Help plan future programming, fundraising, and field trips for the centers. See you there! Owego FRC: July 7th at 10 am Waverly FRC: July 30th at 4 pm
