Adult Summer Reading Program a Success!

Our Adult Summer Reading Program ended on August 14 with 1,885 books read by 193 participants. While we did not reach the goal of 2,000 books read, the Friends of the Library has decided to give us what we need to purchase the "Milk Menagerie" gift from Heifer International. Thank you, Friends, and thank you to all of our participants this summer.
