June 2012 Director's Message

As I look out our window at this lovely, early June day, our cold, rainy spring seems like a bad dream.  The weather today makes me excited to begin our Summer Reading Program.  This year's program, "One World, Many Stories" begins Monday, June 13th and meets in our Community Room.  Miss Merrie Knapp will be leading the group of Kindergarten through 4th graders.  (Age will be based on the grade you are leaving.)  There will be age appropriate stories, games and crafts.  One thing is for sure -- it will be FUN!

The Library will also be holding a Summer Reading Contest which is being sponsored by McDonald's of Tekonsha.  McDonald's will be supplying a brand new bike for our grand prize drawing on August 26th!  You may earn tickets for the drawing by READING!!  The more you read, the more tickets you will receive and the more chances to win that cool bike!  Register for the Reading Race at the Circulation Desk at the Library.  We will also have weekly prize drawings beginning July 15th.  Be sure to get registered as soon as possible and start READING!!!

For the adults, we have lots of new books.  Check them out!  Also, the long-awaited and promised computer expansion will be happening this summer.  We will be adding Wi-Fi, as well.  We are excited to be able to offer these new services to our community!
