Please join us this summer for more than 6 weeks of fun programs activities and prizes!
Toddlers through age 18 can sign up for reading contests with prizes such as B&N gift cards and, for 12-18-year olds, a chance to win Dollar General gift cards. Everyone will get to pick a free book and there will be other weekly Take Home projects or prizes for everyone.
No required attendance…participate as much as you’d like, even if you’d just want to choose a free book. Programs are open to all, including adults, regardless if you sign up. So far we have these awesome programs scheduled, and we are planning more.
Sign-ups begin June 27. Check Facebook or our website for any last minute changes and updates.
