Our Summer Reading Program (SRP) is going on right now! Register at the library to participate and win some fabulous prizes – just for reading books. (Logging ends Saturday, Aug. 1.) The theme this year is, “Plant a Seed, Read!” and we are planning all sorts of activities for you, ending with Shirefest–our SRP finale–on Aug. 15.
We have four groups for Summer Reading:
Baby – Pre-K

- Color in a leaf for every book read on the tracking sheet.
