Every year we have a CBC Christmas Carol event in which a CBC radio personality partners with four readers from the community and holds a reading which raises money for charity. I organized it for a couple of years and it was such great fun. My town is home to a major theatre so it is easy to find excellent readers, too. Very enjoyable to listen to.Melwykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04885378201188978664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-83075508044607655462009-12-27T10:40:20.555-08:002009-12-27T10:40:20.555-08:00Merry Christmas to all of you too!
