We welcomed Meredith Burns, Children's Librarian at the Jacaranda Library, at our meeting on June 10th. Meredith was given a check for $500 for the children's summer program at the library. Jacaranda Library offers free programs for "littles" to teens. Check out information on their website to join in these programs and become involved with their summer reading program. Children can win prizes not only through the library but also "Reading with Rays".
