Teen Summer Reading Program at the Halfway Point

Summer is flying by here at the Vicksburg District Library!  The "Beneath the Surface" Teen Summer Reading Program has now reached the halfway point.  But it's not too late to sign up -- we still have plenty of great events coming up and there's still time to read 30 minutes per day to get FREE weekly prizes like free food at Applenockers, Subway, and Pizza Hut... or FREE fair tickets and FREE roller rink passes!

The summer reading program runs now through Saturday, July 27, at 5pm, and you are welcome to sign up until that last day and collect reading prizes.  Also -- we do still have tons of fun programs coming up that you can still register for!  We still have a fiction writers' workshop, a photo scavenger hunt, a Mythbusters Day, and a visit from the Kalamazoo Nature Center.  Come on down and check them out!

Lastly, a big THANK YOU to all of the guests and volunteers that have helped make the 2013 program a BLAST so far!  You can read about our epic summer reading program kick-off event -- The Zombie Prom -- in the last post -- and see some pictures.  We also have had a ton of fun making homemade Magic 8 Balls, gorging ourselves on snacks and drinks while watching "Warm Bodies," and competing in the "Fruit Ninjas" cooking challenge!  I have attached some pictures so you can see what a great time we've been having.  Don't wait any longer -- come on down and get signed up! 

Any questions or comments?  Contact me, Beth -- the Teen Librarian -- at 649-1648 or at bdowson@vicksburglibrary.org.  Hope to see you soon!!
