Country music legend and philanthropist Dolly Parton
will be a keynote speaker during the 2010 RI Convention
in Montréal, Québec, Canada, 20-23 June.
Parton will speak at the morning plenary session on 23 June
to promote reading among preschool children
. She and the Dollywood Foundation's Imagination Library teamed

Parton will speak to Rotarians about the importanc
e of early childhood reading
and how the collaboration with Rotary International
has augmented the success of the Imagination Library.
The singer developed a personal love of books
while growing up in rural Tennessee, USA,
where she saw firsthand the toll that illiteracy can take on families.
"I am thrilled about our partnership with Rotary International,"
she said in March.
"Rotarians love kids as much as I do,
so I truly believe we can do something extraordinary together
to help even more children love to read and succeed."
Since its launch in 1996, the Imagination Library
has provided more than 23 million books to preschoolers.

SMILE!!!!






A man was in love with his girlfriend, Lorraine.
But he started having doubts when he met Clearly,
a new woman in his office.
He soon fell in love with her
. He considered breaking things off with Lorraine,
but he just couldn't do it.
Then, one day, Lorraine learned that her employer was transferring her.
She would have to move across the country.
The man was secretly very happy.
He can see Clearly now; Lorraine is gone
