Anne Arundel County Chapter launches BBOB Reading Nook June 10, 2008 - the Anne Arundel County Chapter joined our national initiative to encourage reading among boys living in urban communities.
The Anne Arundel County Mocha Moms launched their first Boys Booked on Barbershop on June 10, 2008 at "Styles United" located at 801 Land Mark Dr., Suite B, Glen Burnie, MD 21061 which is owned and operated by Mr. Gary Johnson.
The chapter just recently completed their 2nd Restocking of BBOB at "Styles United" on November 7, 2008. Moms donated books and snacks for the children to enjoy while waiting to get their hair cut. Mr. Johnson stated that the children and parents were extremely excited and happy to have books when they came in to the barbershop.
The chapter is already making plan to launch another barbershop in 2009 in another area of Anne Arundel County.
