Satruday Children's reading program

The Saturday Children's reading program has been cancelled for Saturday's starting 2-1-10. Due to the lack of interest, we just cannot afford to have a staff member here to do the program. We are sorry to have to cancel, as we have done this program for 8 years.

The Adult Reading Program is now underway. Any adult who enjoys reading may sign up for the program. The only requirement of the program is to read books! No Reports!
