"Awards Program and Picnic" 1:00


We end our summer reading program with awards for children turning in their reading and listening logs and will have a big picnic behind the library with games, hot dogs, face-painting and more. What a way to end a great summer reading program and thank the children for their attendance and participation.

We hope this reading program instills a love of reading and visiting the library to all the children and we look forward to them returning many times. Remember these words:

The more you read,
the more you know.

The more you know,
the smarter you grow.

The smarter you grow,
the stronger your voice.

When speaking your mind,
or making your choice.
