School may be winding down, but summer reading at the library is just beginning! Come to the library on June 26th for the Registration Party. Get the scoop on everything going on this summer and find out all about volunteering at the library. Also? There will be ice cream :)
Teen Advisory Board meets for the last time this Saturday at 2pm in the Community Room. We'll be discussing summer volunteer opportunities. Stick around after the meeting to help work on our "Let's Save 1916" T-shirts. See you there!
Happy reading and writing,
Dianne
