NLLLC President Monnie Moores

Greetings Everyone,

Summer is here and with it the promise of new beginnings. Everyone begins to feel renewed and rejuvenated. We acquire more motivation as students and tutors. This new energy will keep us on track with zest for another season.

On behalf of NLLLC Board and Staff I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our Volunteers and students for a job well done. Volunteers are not paid -- not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless. (Author Unknown)

Looking forward to seeing everyone who will be attending NLLLC’s Annual General Meeting in Corner Brook in November.

Have a safe, happy and fun-filled summer.

Take Care

Monnie
