Weekly raffle tickets are put towards the end of summer drawing every week.

 

Don't forget that the Teen Bingo Card earns you extra tickets.

 

You'll need your Summer ID number. This number can be found back near the Teen Area. The person at the Ref Desk can help you find your number. You can also call 926-3368 to find out Summer ID.

 

You can turn in your summer reading online. Follow the directions. You're entered for the weekly and end of summer drawings. That simple. 

 

I'll be sending periodic emails through out the summer talking about the programs we have and that you've signed up for. 

 

That's all for now, til next week.
