Adventure is at Limestone Township Library District This
Summer
We are having a great time during this year’s Summer
Reading Program at Limestone Township Library!
We have nearly 300 community members signed up to
read for the summer. And they have read over 87,000 minutes by the third week.
Our goal is to read 120,000 minutes during the five weeks of summer reading and
we are nearly there.
Make sure to turn in your completed reading logs of 500 minutes to qualify for the Finale and earn tickets to put in the boxes for the prize baskets.
We are filling our weeks with plenty of activities.
