25th Anniversary Cookbook
LVSA proudly rolled out our 25th Anniversary Cookbook in fall 2008. Culled from the recipes of our learners, tutors and community friends, this cookbook makes a great gift. The book includes recipes from such local names as Jill Biden, wife of Vice President Joe Biden; Martha Carper, wife of Senator Thomas Carper; Carla Markell, wife of Delaware Governor Jack Markell; and Dale Wolf and Ruth Ann Minner, former governors.
You can find dishes such as Yum Yum Dessert, Moroccan Flatbread and Cheesy Mexican Chicken. Vegetarian dishes, exotic dishes, main courses, breads, salads and desserts round out this offering of delicious entrees. For the beginner and seasoned chef alike, everyone will be able to find something they love in this cookbook. Order yours from Literacy Volunteers, by calling the office at 302-658-5624 or online at www.litvolunteers.org.

Tutor Training
We will be holding tutor training orientation sessions. All are invited to join us. If you ever thought about volunteering for LVSA, or wondered what it would be like, come see. We will discuss our program, our learners, our expectations and what you can expect from us. The orientation is required now before taking the tutor training workshop. Orientations will be held monthly.
Please check the calendar for training dates.
The next orientation sessions will be announced soon. We will hold an English as a second language focused tutor training workshop in June.
