The Literacy Coalition of Palm Beach County is celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Read for the Record initiative, which directs adults and children through a shared reading experience. Mayors from Palm Beach County municipalities helped kick off the event with a luncheon featuring Marcus Bridgewater — aka Garden Marcus — who is this year’s Read for the Record featured author. The preparations all lead up to Read for the Record Day, Feb. 26.
