Everyone is welcome to come to our Summer Read party!

Every year, when our Summer Reading programs have finished, we have programs and parties to celebrate Summer Read.    This year, the Adult/Teen Summer Read party will be on Friday, August 3rd from 6:00 – 7:30 p.m.   There will be a special presentation, plenty of food and fun, and we’ll also be announcing the winners of our 4 raffle prizes.   We’ll also have a special door prize for party attendees, which will include a Nook Simple Touch, and some other goodies.   Winners of the raffle prizes do not need to be present at the party to win, but for the special door prize, winners must be present.
We are happy to announce that there will be a presentation by Kerry Keller, Director of the Bolingbrook School of Metaphysics.  He’s going to talk about dreams, and dream interpretation, and how our perception of dreams can be significant in our lives.
So please mark your calendars and join us for this great presentation, and for our Summer Read party on August 3rd!

The Nook Simple Touch is part of our special door prize at the Summer Read party
