StoryWalk Robeson with Delta Kappa Gamma is located a Luther Britt Park in Lumberton NC near the parking lot on the I-95 side. The project is in cooperation with the City of Lumberton Recreation Department. StoryWalk uses the pages of a book to tell the story on signs. While reading the story, children are asked questions about the book. Storywalk is a registered trademark and was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, Vermont and developed in cooperation with the Kellogg Hubbard Library. Please help support this project in Robeson County by donating to help cover the cost of the books, heavy duty laminating, resizing of pages, and cleaning the stands.
