Summer Challenge

Win prizes in our summer "Own the Night" Challenge!

Any combination of reading 6 books or attending 6 summer teen programs earns you a prize.  You also get a prize when you sign up and at half-way through.  Ask for your card at the desk.

After the first card, you can complete more cards to enter in a drawing for more chances to win.

Final Prize Drawings
You have your choice of entering your completed cards in 1 of the following three drawings:
  • A prize drawing with summer program souvenirs and gifts from local sponsors.
  • A movie night with up to 10 of your friends at the library.
  • An after-hours internet session at the library with up to 5 of your friends.

Ductigami
June 29 ~ 8:00 - 9:00 pm

The list of things you can create with duct tape is endless: bags, ipod cases, bracelets, belts, flip flops, giraffes … what can you make with a roll of tape?


Humans vs. Zombies
July 2 ~ 8:00 - 9:00 pm

Make a zombie string doll and join us for an after-hours game of HvZ (sort of like hide-&-seek and tag rolled into one crazy game) in the library. Can you survive the zombie apocalypse?

Transform a drab composition notebook into a work of art.

FrodoFest
July 16 ~ 10:00 am - 8:00 pm

Teen Volunteer Party
July 23~ 8:00 - 9:00 pm

We couldn’t run the summer program without our volunteers, so now it’s their turn to have free reign of the library.  (This party is limited to summer volunteers).
