Little Rock Twestival 2009 was wonderful and we’d like to say thank you to some folks that helped make this event a success.

First, a huge Thank you to Reach Out and Read Arkansas for allowing us this opportunity to get involved with your amazing charity. We couldn’t have found a better organization to work with and your involvement was key to the success of this event. We appreciate what you are doing in our community and we are excited about the future and ways we can continue to help.

Second, we owe a debt of gratitude to the “Forty Two” restaurant for there generosity in hosting Twestival and for going above and beyond our expectations. We are still in awe that we were able to hold Twestival at the Clinton Presidential Library and we thank you for making that happen.

Next, we’d like to thank the people that worked behind the scenes to create this event. Thank you to Alex, Angel, Bryan, and Natalie. Your leadership and service to this community resulted in the lives of children being changed. We are all grateful for your selfless work.

Finally, a huge thank you to YOU. This event was able to make a difference because the LRTweetup community got behind Twestival and Reach Out and Read Arkansas. We can’t say thank you enough for sharing your time, books, and hard earned dollars to help improve the lives of Arkansas Children. Thanks for being the best community in central Arkansas.
