Adult Summer Reading Program

Yes, you read that right...there is an Adult Summer Reading Program-it's not just for kids! Friday, June 1st, from 6-8 pm is our big Summer Reading Kickoff, an event for the whole family. You can register for Summer Reading, get your picture taken in our "photobooth," listen to live music, and eat free ice cream!
 For those of you who are not familiar with our Adult Summer Reading Program, here's how it works:
    1. Register for the Summer Reading Program, either a the Kickoff on June 1st or here at the library anytime thereafter.
    2. Pick up a Goal Sheet either at the Kickoff or at the library (these can be picked up anytime during the Summer Reading Program, which starts June 1st and ends July 27th).
    3. Set yourself weekly reading and library activity related goals. These can be anything you want (examples are provided on the back of the goal sheet). So, maybe your goal will be to read 360 minutes that week? And to try a new author? And to attend a library program?
    4. Once you've met those weekly goals, come on in to the library and get a raffle ticket for each goal you meet. That means, the more goals you set and meet, the more raffle tickets you get! These raffle tickets will enter you to win a prize or prizes of your choosing. And what's up for grabs?

           *Kindle Touch
           *Nook Simple Touch
           *Garmin nuvi 1450 (GPS navigator for your car)
           *iPod nano
           *$50 gift certificate to Hurricane Grill and $25 So Italian gift certificate

So, there is your motivation to get to the library, get registered for Summer Reading, and well...get reading!!! We hope to see you at the kickoff, and at the library throughout the Summer.
