Richmond Young Writers Announces the 2010 Core Values Tour




What is the “2010 Core Values Tour”?
The program was created by nationally renowned and award-winning storyteller, Slash Coleman. It is a 45-minute storytelling concert that combines personal stories and songs with the Core Value Initiative that was adopted by the Chesterfield County School Board in 1999. The initiative is based on the book Educating for Character (by Thomas Lickona1992, Bantam).

Who is it for?
The concert is appropriate for families, teachers and children of all ages. It works especially well with students in grades 6-12 by igniting interest in the four core values: respect, responsibility, accountability, and honesty.

What will it do for kids?
2010 Core Values Tour encourages kids to reach for more in the areas of personal
and academic achievement.

Who is eligible to book the free event?
All public schools, libraries, community centers, arts organizations, and non-profits(including churches and synagogues) are eligible for this free program. To receive additional information about this unique opportunity visit http://www.slashcoleman.com or e-mail info@slashcoleman.com.
