The colors of summer

The summer reading program weeks are zipping by. We're once again setting records for the number of young people who have registered to participate in "Be Creative @ your library". More than 1450 have signed up to read or be read to.

You may recall that the last few summers our Children’s Librarian Katherine Eberline has set a goal for the number of young people who register to read and if we meet that goal, she dyes her hair a color selected by the young people. The first year it was a bright blue, last year it was orange with red tips. This year Katherine decided that for every one hundred registrants over 1000 she would add a color. So in late August she’ll have her hair dyed at least five different colors. I think she’s looking at a rainbow effect. And of course registrations are open until late July so who knows how many colors she may have by then.

Summer's always fun here at the Library.
