The end of summer reading report:
Week 9 was miscellaneous craft day, come and do all those crafts you missed this summer or do them again if you wanted.
End of Summer reading for the teens was August 5thwith a tie dye day. The kids brought shirts and seemed to have a blast.
Week10 the last of summer reading. The adults had a “share your collection’ day. They were told to bring in items that they collect and share them with the group. This was really interesting, we got to learn what people collected and how they started collecting.
Wednesday, August 11th was the final day. Instead of the usual Treasure Hunt we just squirted the kids with water guns, it was just to hot to do anything else,we were have 100 plus weather and it just wasn’t save to have to kids running around in that heat.

Week #8 Summer Reading 2010
On Tuesday, July 27th the adults held the Remembering Fun & Games Bi-folkal kit. The group really enjoyed this one.
We even did two skits that came with the kit.
Everyone talked about games from their past. The video was really enjoyable also.
On Wednesday and Thursday the kids make Sea Creatures. They were given shells and various items to decorate with.
The kids used their imaginations with this craft, some of the creatures were really interesting.
