hello

The Summer Reading Program is just around the corner at Union County Public Library. This year’s theme will be “Catch the Reading Bug”. We are in the process of turning the Children’s Area into a forest covered with bugs, bug catcher nets and bug holders.

Although registration for the Summer Reading Program will not begin until June, we have already scheduled some fun activities for the children and are in the process of scheduling more. Instead of incentives at the end of summer, we are going to be putting small prizes in the children’s bags that they pick up when they come to the library to register. Most of those prizes have already been purchased. We want to exceed our enrollment from last year and are asking for monetary donations to help pay for materials.

We are very excited to have two Teen Movie Nights planned for June and July. We serve pizza and popcorn and have tons of fun.

Our year-round story time will go back to 11 A.M. during the Summer Reading Program. Ms. Linda Foster, Mountain Regional Library System’s storyteller, is working very hard planning some exciting story times for this summer.

If you wish to donate to the Union County Public Library Summer Reading Program, please stop by the library or mail your donation to: Union County Public Library, P.O. Box 1029, Blairsville, GA 30514. We look forward to a fun Summer Reading Program and welcome any and all donations.
