2012 Summer Was Great!

Now that the 2012 Summer Program, "Dream Big!" is over... here's how we did:

Children's Program:
304 children registered to participate in the reading incentive program
156,000 minutes were spent reading!
We had 42 children's programs during the summer with 2035 people participating!

Teen Program:
Included a successful reading raffle, knitting class, lots of "microblogging" on the graffiti wall, tie-dying and craft days.   Lots of activities in the teen area!

Adult Programs
"Sweet Dreams" Raffle: 1008 entries, with Gail McCarthy winning the "Sweet Dreams" gift basket
"Dancing with Joy" line dancing opportunity with Joy Frizelle:  About 175 enjoyed this entertaining evening activity
Firefly Concert Series:  Three concerts this year (due to July 4 falling on the first Wednesday) were attended by 1000.  A great time was had by all!

Thank you to everyone who participated in our summer fun!

THANK YOU TO THE FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY AND THE LIBRARY BOARD FOR FUNDING TO UNDERWRITE THESE ACTIVITIES!
