Summer Vacation Reading Program Schedule!

It's that time of year again! Vacation Reading began June 1 and will continue through to July 11. We have programs for all ages, so come on in and join us! All programs are free, and we will provide the materials for all activities unless otherwise noted.

This year we have three Reading Clubs - "Be Creative" for the younger ones, "Express Yourself" for middle- & high-schoolers (ages 11 - 18) and "Master the Art of Reading" for adults. There's a reading program for everyone, and weekly prizes to be had for all ages! For rules of entry, come to the library and sign up!
