The LV Bangor Literacy Tea Will Go Virtual on Sunday – q1065.fm

Literacy Volunteers of Bangor will holda virtual Literacy Tea this Sunday on Facebook.

Last year, I attended the Literacy Tea at John Bapst Memorial High School, with my daughter-in-law and granddaughter. We got all dressed up and enjoyed a fun day of tasty teas, tempting treats, and a Maine author sharing one of her works. It's the organization's biggest fundraiser of the year, but social distancing and the mandated closure of events with over 10 people made this year challenging.

But the folks at Literacy Volunteers of Bangor came up with the perfect solution by making it a 'virtual tea.' Make it a special event with your kids, who are getting bored being stuck in the house. Dress up or stay in your comfy clothes, brew some of your favorite tea (or any other beverage), put out a plate of snacks, and tune in for videos of Lynn Plourde reading her book 'The Dump Man's Treasures,' and Amy McDonald reading 'Rachel Fister's Blister.' The videos will be posted early in the day, so you can have your tea party at whatever time is convenient for you. You can even share pictures on Facebook with #VirtualTeaLVB.

Obviously, organizers are hoping that you'll donate to Literacy Volunteers of Bangor. The money raised will be put toward purchasing online learning resources for the students in their program, since they are currently not able to meet with their volunteer tutors. Whether you have a tea party or not, you can donate online anytime. Just write 'Virtual Tea Party' in the memo.

Literacy Volunteers of Bangor works to improve the reading comprehension of Mainers.

BERLIN CENTER, Ohio (WKBN) A music teacher from Western Reserve Elementary is giving social distancing a new meaning.

Elizabeth Shewell created a Facebook group called 2020 Social Distancing Tea Party.

In the group, people can post pictures of whatever they are drinking as well as connect with and update each other on life.

Shewell says it all started when she was drinking tea everyday while staying at home.

The group started with only her close friends, but now it has over a thousand members, even including people from out of the county.

Its become really a supportive group of, you know, were in this together, and people arent seeing each other, but we can still share our days with each other, Shewell said.

She says her hopes are to reach even more people.

Franklin Square residents spread birthday cheer – liherald

Michael and Molly Talbot thought their 10th birthday on March 25 would be their worst yet. Their mother, Deborah, erected a sign outside their house on Maloon Avenue in Franklin Square telling passersby to honk for their birthday, but Michael was just planning on spending the day playing video games alone, and Molly figured she would just play on her iPad and watch television rather than have the American Girl Doll tea party she dreamed of.

But around 2 p.m., the Talbots heard a loud commotion outside, where dozens of their friends families passed by in their cars wearing costumes, honking their horns and wishing the twins a happy birthday.

That moment became the twins favorite part of their birthday, their father John, recounted. Michael said he loved it, and thought it was so fun, and Molly said, It blew my mind to see everyone come down the street.

She had spoken to her friend, Alana Freifeld, that morning, and told her how she was disappointed in her birthday this year, as New Yorkers are encouraged to self-isolate to stop the spread of COVID-19. Fortunately, Alanas mother, Dawn, overheard the conversation and immediately asked everyone in the childrens fourth-grade class at the Washington Street School if they could help make Michael and Mollys birthday special by driving by their house.

Lauren McManamy, another mother of a boy in the class, then reached out to the members of Cub Scout Pack 372, which Deborah Talbot is the assistant den mother of. In the end, she said, they had nearly a dozen cars drive down the street to celebrate the twins birthday.

I think it went well, McManamy said, despite the poor weather and the parade being planned in only about four hours.

In fact, she said, the birthday parade was extended beyond just visiting the Talbots house, as Pack Leader Dorine Dand directed the group to another fourth-graders house, a 6-year-olds house and another classmates house whose birthday was one week prior.

We all felt like we were doing something to make someones day special, said Dawn Freifeld, and that felt great.

She said she thought it was important to ensure that children are not feeling alone during the pandemic, and therefore created a Facebook group to organize more birthday parades for children in the Franklin Square community, based on the success of the Talbots parade.

It gets everyone involved, McManamy said of the group. But I think its super important in this time to let these kids know the community is here. We will get through this together, be here for one another, and if that means [putting on] a parade, well then thats what well do.
