Students who will be going to grades 6-12 in the coming school year can participate in the teen program.

You will get a chance to win a prize for every book you read this summer. Simply come to the Library and submit an entry form for each book you read. Every few weeks we will draw random winners who will get to select from a variety of prizes such as bags, T-Shirts, notepads, magnetic bookmarks, color changing pencils, and many more.

Children's Summer Reading Program

The Summer Reading Program will go from June 8 thru August 3, 2011

Sign Up at the library, then read 20 minutes each day. You many count the time you spend reading books, comic books, newspapers, or magazines. You may also count the time you spend listening to books that are read to you, or to recorded books. You choose what you want to read!

Keep track of your reading on your Reading Log ( you'll get one when you sign up) and you will get a prize when you bring the completed card back to the library. You can earn up to eight prizes this summer, just by reading.

There will be drawings held every few weeks for bigger prizes, and a final drawing at the closing party for T-Shirts, reading bags, and other great prizes. The Reading Logs will be your entries into the drawings.

Summer Story Time will be held each Thursday throughout the summer at 10:30 for those 7 and younger, and 3:30 for those 8 and up.
