Summer is coming! We have a lot of great programs planed for the Summer Reading Program.
This year the theme for the Teen Summer Reading Program is “Unmask!” and we plan to have a lot of exciting programs for teens to attend this summer. “Unmask!” will run from June 11 to August 18, 2015. Each week when students read for 30 minutes in the library they can put their name in for a prize drawing. If they come to a program they will have another chance to put their name in the drawing. In addition to reading there will be a program every other Thursday at 10:00 a.m., and each month we will have one craft and one presenter. The craft will relate to the presenter for that same month. This programming is made possible by the Friends of the Milford Memorial Library and by several local businesses that have donated prizes. All programs and craft supplies are provided by the library at no charge to the students. Thank you for supporting the Milford Library’s Teen Summer Reading Program.
