The 2019 Summer Reading Program, available to all students grades K-6, has begun and it’s not too late to register! Last day to register is June 25. All registrants will receive a book bag with puzzles, stickers, and bookmarks. The program will run through July 11. Each session requires 120 minutes of reading to earn a prize. At the end of the program, readers who complete all three sessions will be entered in a drawing for a grand prize. Please see the library for more details.
