The United Way of Rutherford and Cannon Counties' Success By 6 initiative hosted a Reading Rally at the Cannon County Senior Center Saturday.
The event featured complimentary books, child identification kits, and door prizes.
Children were entertained with literacy-related activities, storytelling with special guests, face painting, and refreshments. Families also had the opportunity to register for Books from Birth and library cards.
