Dear Friend,

We are enjoying a great summer here at the Boonton Holmes Library. Our summer reading program for kids has seen record numbers of registrations and participants – those weekly squishmallow prizes sure are a fabulous incentive to keep reading! 

A friendly reminder: We are running a summer reading challenge for adults as well with some great raffle prizes to be drawn on Friday, August 30. So be sure to get your tickets in!

In case you didn't get the memo: All Boonton-owned children's and teen items are now fine free (but we still want them back, please).

Warm regards,

Lotte
