The Community Education Task Force of LBAR donates books to every elementary school in Central KY every year. We were so honored for each of the Rector Hayden agents that made the time and effort to volunteer and assist with this great community project.
Two of those special agents were Arla and Darrell Frazier. Arla and Darrell recently joined the RHR Family in Summer of 2016 after moving from the Indianapolis area where they also worked as leading real estate agents. Arla and Darrell have formed a team within Rector Hayden and gained an additional member, Theresa Terry as well! You can see their listings at: http://www.frazierteamrealty.rhr.com/

Arla and Darrell read to children at the Stanton Library and the Clay City Elementary School. Read the press release from LBAR (Lexington Bluegrass Association of REALTORS) below.
Rector Hayden REALTORS is so blessed to have many other agents participate in this event. Missy Ward, our most devoted philanthropist, was caught reading at James Lane Allen Elementary too! Thanks to our unseasonal weather, Missy looks like she’s dressed for Summer – Kentucky Weather is crazy!!! A huge thank you to Missy for participating in this great event for our community’s kiddos.

In its 9th year, LBAR continues bookpresentations to local elementary schools.
November 18th, 2016
This school year Realtors representing the Lexington-Bluegrass Association of REALTORS® (LBAR) visited the public elementary schools in Anderson County including Emma B. Ward Elementary, Robert B. Turner Elementary, and Saffell Street Elementary and presented a book. Each school received The Day the Crayons Quit by esteemed author Drew Daywalt and acclaimed
illustrator Oliver Jeffers. In The Day the Crayons Quit poor Duncan just wants to color, but when he opens his box of crayons, he finds only letters, all saying the same thing. His crayons have had enough; they quit!
In its ninth year, Melissa Poynter, the chair of the LBAR community education task force, has continued to lead this project. This contribution to Anderson County is part of a larger donation to the public elementary schools in the Bluegrass region —LBAR will be presenting the book to over 140 elementary schools in 22 counties. The project is part of LBAR’s goal to become involved with the area’s school systems in innovative ways that will positively shape the future of our community’s children.
