With our 2011 Summer Program coming to an end, we’d like to thank all the families who have participated in the reading groups, field trips, and performances this summer.

We have had great attendance all summer long and hope that you have had as much fun as we have.  If you have any comments or ideas on how we can improve the Summer Program next year don’t hesitate to contact myself or Leilania Nichols, our Children’s Coordinator. 

Speaking of Leilania, I’d like to recognize her for her hard work this summer for the youth of Wakulla County.  We are lucky to have a licensed teacher on staff who not only can set up programs that are fun for children but can make sure that they learn something as well.  We’d also like to thank the Friends of the Library organization for their 100% funding of the Summer Programs each year.

End of Summer Ice Cream Party

This Thursday from 6-8 we will be holding an end of summer ice cream party for the children who have signed up and attended our reading programs all summer long.  Some awards and tokens of our appreciation will be handed out so if you’ve been joining us for all the fun this summer please come out one last time for all the fun!

Furlough Day Closing

WCPL will be closed on Friday 8/5 for a county mandated furlough day.  As I mentioned last week our hours for the rest of the week are back on our regular schedule.

Book Extravaganza Fundraiser

Speaking of the Friends of the Library, their bi-monthly Book Extravaganza Fundraiser will be held on Saturday 8/6 from 9-12 in our Main Meeting Room.  As always we have 1000’s of books, video, and audio for your browsing pleasure.  While monetary donations aren’t required, all funds raised go directly to the Friends of the Library for our Summer Programs, book budget, and other needed expenses throughout the year.  Each year the Friends’ donations save the taxpayers of Wakulla County nearly $25,000 by covering expenses that don’t have to be paid out of our County Budget, so please come out and support this great organization!
