Read-A-Thon

We have an exciting summer reading program until September 27^th. We would like for you to join in the fun. Have you noticed the reading chart by the Library? We now have over 32 names on it. Folks from age 3 to 87 are getting into the fun of reading books and enjoying videos from the Library. There is a great selection available so why not visit the library, pick up some books or a video and join in the excitement? There are a variety of prizes such as gift cards from department stores, restaurants, grocery stores, and a variety of other items for children and adults to select from. If you read the New Testament in any version, it is the same as reading 3 books in the library. If you read the Old Testament in any version, it is the same as reading 10 books in the library. . If, for some reason your name is not on the poster please talk to one of the librarians.
