"Catch the Reading Bug" important wrap-up information

Our 2008 Summer Reading Club "Catch the Reading Bug" event is almost over. You still have through Saturday, August 30th to finish your ten hours of reading to earn a free paperback and credit for your school and additional two hours (for a total of twelve) to earn your restaurant coupons. Please stop at the Main Library children's desk.

We will also be posting all thirteen "Questions that bug us" in the Main Library Children's Room on Monday, August 25th through Saturday, August 30th to give you the opportunity to answer any questions you need to complete your gameboard.

Thanks to everyone who participated this summer. We had a great time and hope you did too – keep reading!
