End of Summer Party This Friday

Our summer reading program is coming to a close and will officially end on Friday, August 24.  So, it is time to celebrate another great summer!  This Friday, August 17 from 3-5pm we will be having a party.  Come make some homemade ice cream in a bag and enjoy some snacks.  Everyone is welcome to participate, no registration required.

 

Dream Catcher

Join us tomorrow, July 19 at 4:00pm to make your own dream catcher out of cardboard, yarn, beads and feathers.  Then hang it above your bed for fewer bad dreams.  All ages welcome, but younger children may need assistance. 

 

Summer Reading

Summer is here!  It’s time for warm weather, outdoor fun, and the summer reading program at the library.

At the Highland Branch Library we have a reading program for every age.

Kids (Ages 3-11) can earn weekly prizes for reading for three hours.  They can read alone, be read to, or listen to an audiobook.

Teens (Ages 12-18) can earn weekly prizes and be entered in a monthly raffle for their reading time.

Adults can read and write short reviews for a chance to win a Barnes & Noble gift card.  There will be smaller prizes for runners up.

The programs begin Thursday, July 5 and end Friday, August 24.   Come in to the library to pick up reading logs or forms and get reading.

March Madness

And the winner is:

We had some impressive numbers for our March Madness Character Showdown.  There were 154 entries which represented 14,395 minutes of reading and 452 pieces of homework completed.  The participants all did a great job supporting their characters, but the support of the Peeta fans who rallied others to vote allowed him to win out.  Join us next time for the battle of the Disney characters.
