Finisher's Line
This year we're doing something a little different to celebrate the last day of Summer Reading. We'll be opening up the library after-hours for a special concert with Sting Ray who will present "Beatles & Bubblebum"- music from the 60's & 70's along with some trivia! We'll have some last chance prizes for kids, teens and adults, too! Doors open @ 6:30 and the concert starts @ 7PM.
And...if you still have some books to check in for the weekly raffles, the kids' prizes will be drawn on Friday, August 10th some time around 6PM. So you'll want to make sure you get all of your books checked in before then. The teens and adult weekly raffles will be drawn on Monday, August 13th after 1PM.
Thanks to everyone for making our summer reading program a success!
