| ABOUT THE SUMMER READING PROGRAM When you sign up for the Summer Reading Program, you will be given a punch card. Everytime you read a book, or attend a library program, you will be given a punch on the card. Once you fill out the card, give it to the librarian and it will be entered into an end-of-summer prize raffle. You can complete up to four punch cards to increase your chances to win. Prizes have been donated from local businesses: Woodbury Mountain Toys, Onion River Kids, The Book Garden, Bear Pond Books, the Drawing Board, and Delish! Registration begins June 1. Prize drawing is August 4th at 2pm. Punches begin on June 19th. | |

| Final Prize Drawing Wednesday AUGUST 4, AT 2pm Summer reading program comes to an end with the final prize drawing. Drop off your punchcards before 12 noon!
