Summer Reading Program: Thank you to everyone who
registered! The Summer Reading Program is going strong with
85 participants. We will be providing extra chances to earn raffle
points throughout the program. Recently we offered an extra raffle
ticket if you submitted a photo of a participant either reading or
completing an activity from the reading packet. This week’s packet
includes a survey about the program. Please fill out the survey and
return it to Kathy Cole. Each completed survey will earn a raffle
ticket. Please remember to turn in your reading logs when they are
completed. Every completed reading log earns a raffle ticket. The
raffle will be held on Aug. 28, which is the last day of the program.
Happy reading!
