 Set Sail for the Library! We are going to “Make a Splash
& READ”this summer at the Way Public Library. Boys and girls are
invited to join the Summer Reading Club
at Way Public Library.
Read for fun! Visit the library once each week and write down
the books you have read in your reading log.
At that time you will receive a small prize and a sticker
on your reading log. Collect all six stickers.
The first prize and sticker will be issued the week
of June 14 and the final incentives the week of July 19.
During a “make-up”week, held July 26– 30,
for as long as quantities last, children can collect
one of the stickers and prizes they have missed.
Preschoolers may participate by having books read to them. Children
entering fourth and fifth grades will be eligible for weekly prize drawings. |
