The Official Count, Ammended

Way back in October, The MRC participated in something called Read for the Record. I'm sure you've never heard of it. It's this event where people gather up students in schools and read the same book all over the country. It really didn't go over that well. And by didn't go over well, I mean it was a huge success. As of October 15, Read for the Record had tallied over one-million readers, and since that is the last number that they have announced, I can only assume they are still counting. The final, final count came in and Read for the Record reached 2,019,752 readers. Wow.

The MRC on the other hand, has finished their own count and has officially announced that its members read to 10,945 young readers! You have claimed your very own percentage of the humongous number of people participating in Read for the Record this year, and it's even a whole number. Awesome job everyone!
