			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify"><strong>Help bring new books to students!  Participation is easy!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify">1.  <a href="mailto:djohnson@iditarod.com">Sign up to be a participating school.</a> You will be assigned a school in need.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify">2.  Hold a fundraiser to purchase new books for students.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify">3.  Send books in January, February, or March as a part of our Iditarod Books to the Trail project.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify"><a href="http://iditarod.com/pdfs/teacher/2008bookstothetrail.pdf">View a PDF Project Document to learn more about the project.</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify">*Most of our books go to schools in Alaska.  If you are a school &#8216;elsewhere&#8217; and in need of new books or school materials and supplies, please let us know so that you can be placed on our list for future book distribution.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify">*Most participating schools create a scrapbook of their school, community, and state to send to &#8216;their school&#8217;.  Sometimes the participating school sends other school supplies, too.  (Colorful, fun pencils, small notebooks, markers, crayons, stickers, or other necessary school items.)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify">*Most participating schools take book orders during their fundraiser and have the books sent to &#8216;their school&#8217; directly from the book company.  Some schools collect the actual books and have them shipped to &#8216;their school&#8217;.  This project can be designed in a way that best meets the participating school&#8217;s needs.   All projects result in new books to students who need them and appreciate receiving the books.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify">To participate or ask other questions, <a href="mailto:djohnson@iditarod.com">send an email.</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify"><a href="http://www.myubam.com/ecommerce/BookFair.asp?sid=L2007&amp;gid=89873016&amp;BFID=BF32422">Learn about Books to the Trail Usborne Books Online, a resource for your fund raising efforts.</a> Contact Alyssa Truman for details.  (Alyssa&#8217;s contact information is on the link)</p>
