COMING SOON: SUMMER READING @ Tye Preston
Memorial Library!
Jo Johnstone, Youth Services Coordinator
This is a great opportunity to READ! READ! READ! and
enjoy free entertainment, food, fun, prizes, and
incentives to keep reading during the long, hot
summer days. This year’s theme is “Texas Reading
Club Jubilee: 1958 – 2008” celebrating fifty years
of the Summer Reading Club in Texas libraries. The
program is open to children 3 to 12 years and runs 6
weeks beginning with our Opening Day Registration
and Carnival, Wednesday, June 4th at
10:00 a.m. We’ll have a Moon Bounce, lots of
carnival games, snow cones, popcorn and much more.
Don’t miss the entertaining programs and raffles
every Wednesday at 10am. And, back by popular
demand: our “Blue Light Specials”! Any time a
specially marked book is checked out, some lucky
reader will win a free candy bar or soda. At our
Grand Finale Program, July 9, we will award twelve
bicycles and other prizes to our top readers.
We salute our many sponsors for this program: Pilot
Club of Canyon Lake, Wal-Mart, Dollar General,
Colonial Manor, Pedernales Electric, Sac N Pac,
Wells Fargo, Domino’s Pizza, Dairy Queen, McDonalds,
Chick-Fil-A ,and Canyon Lake Ace Hardware.
TEENS!!! This July, we will begin our first Teens
Read program. The four weekly programs will be on
Thursdays from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. beginning on July
17. We’ll start with food while teens are
encouraged to share information about favorite
books. There will be a speaker, or games, and
drawings for prizes each week.
