The Super Hero Store closes at 4:45 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 1. Our readers had a lot of book bucks to cash in for prizes, so it’s been a very hectic week at the library. We had great participation again this year. There were 183 in the preschool through kindergarten category, 332 in the elementary reader category, and 120 teens who have been both reading and volunteering. Sixty-one registered for our adult reading program. Watch for total attendance and reading figures in next month’s column. Thanks to all of our generous donors who sponsored programs and filled the store shelves so our readers could shop. Thanks also to our volunteers who helped make our program so successful. This is a community effort and we appreciate all you do for the library. We are already planning fall story times and toddler time. Story time begins the week of Sept. 14 with three sessions each week, Mondays at 6:30 p.m.; and Wednesdays and Thursdays at 10:15 a.m. All preschool children and their care givers are invited to attend. No registration is required.

Dogs and their humans are invited to swim as lifeguards will be on duty. Proceeds from the Pooch Plunge will go toward the care of Heartland Humane Society and Homeward Bound Rescue’s shelter pets and supplies.
