2015 Summer Reading Program

Visit your local public library this summer and discover new books and presentations by summer reading program educators and artists. They'll talk about your favorite heroes and maybe, they will become your heroes too!
 

 

The "Common Cents" penny jar has been filled  monthly for the last several years with your generous donations of coins.  The Friends have added to the jar, and will present a check to the library on June 13th.  We hope you will continue your generous support of the library.
