Summer Reading Program 2010 | June 19 through August 8
This year's Summer Reading Program theme is Make a Splash. Read! Kids, teens, and adults can participate by registering at the library between June 19 and August 8. For every book you read during the summer, you will be entered into a raffle drawing. A winner will be drawn from each age group at the end of summer Splash Party on Sudnay, August 8. Prizes for kids include Barnes and Noble gift cards and books. Prizes for teens (6th grade and above) include fun beach gear. And for the adults, winners will receive a Mary Kay spa package or an indoor water fountain.
