Walkers & Phoners Needed

Do you enjoy taking a walk down a pleasant street? If you do, Grove Family Library needs your help on one comfortable morning or afternoon to disribute gift bags through a nearby neighborhood. 2,500 gift bags have already been delivered to doorknobs in Guilford and Greene Townships by wonderful volunteers. Another 500 bags are ready for your wlling hands and feet.

Do you enjoy chatting on the telephone? If you do, Grove Family Library can use your help for 90 minutes on the evenings of July 22-24 for their capital campaign phone-a-thon. Enjoy a party atmosphere while you chat.

To assist with either project contact Jill Myers (264-9863) or Amy Wertz (709-0282 x216). We would appreciate your help, which reduces the mortgage on Grove Family Library.

Summer Reading Is For Everyone!



Catch the Reading Bug! I belong to the summer reading club. It's great! No matter what your age or what genre you enjoy reading, sign up today. Let's show the rest of Pennsylvania that Franklin County can read more books! If you register to read, and keep your record, you can win prizes while enjoying any book you want.


For teens and children, there are many exciting activities. Check the event calendar on our main webpage or visit the children's or teen's page of your closest library for details. Metamorphasize your life @ the library to fill those lazy days of summer or vacation.


Parents, did you know that participation in library reading and activities during the summer is the best way to keep your children's minds stimulated and ready to begin the next year of school? Some families have even discovered that the fun atmosphere of summer reading clubs in public libraries create a fresh love of reading in students who struggle during the school year. Encourage your child's participation by signing up yourself. Families who read together, learn together! Catch the Reading Bug, Together! You will never regret it.
