The Summer Reading Program is nearing its end. Reading records should be submitted to the library by 8 p.m. on August 17th.  102 children ranging in age from 0 – 18 have been busy reading (or listening) and earning tickets which they can put toward any of the numerous prizes that are on display.  Area merchants have contributed goods and cash which are the source of these incentives. 

The party celebrating the end of the summer reading program will be on August 21st @ 6:00 p.m.. Come and join us for the night we’ve all been waiting for: enjoy activities, pizza and our SRP raffle! Call Kristine at 766-2715 if you can bring a dessert item.
