What's Happening

 

MIDDLE SCHOOL
Reading begins June 1! You can pick up your reading log at the library or click here to print your own (works best if printed landscape or horizontally).
Read two hours per week - that's 20 minutes per day, 6 days per week - and fill in circles to track your reading and be eligible to enter your name in weekly prize drawings at the library. Completed reading logs must be turned in by July 30 to be eligible for the Grand Prize drawing.

Participate in online book discussions by clicking on the book covers below. More titles will be added throughout the summer, but all will be available through the month of August. This is just for fun, and you do not need to identify yourself in any way.


Middle School participants are also invited to participate as event volunteers. Contact Sharon or Amber at 642-1330 for more information.

Grand Finale
July 30 at the library, 5-7 p.m.
Pizza, prizes, storytime, and games for all ages.
Reading logs must be turned in before the Grand Prize drawing at 6:30 p.m.
