The Dig into Reading Summer Program started June 7th and we had a blast with archeology! All children are welcome to join in the fun with our reading logs and prizes! Our prizes include candy, PEC donations, DQ coupons, and more! Children ages 7 and under (Yes Mom, that means your child can earn prizes when you read to them!) keep track of the number of books they are reading, and get a prize for every 5 books read. Children 8 and up earn prizes for every 10 hours they read. Come by the library and pick up your log today. Children ages 5-12 are welcome to join us for our programs and crafts every Friday during June and July at 10:30am. Here is our schedule:

We are also happy to announce that we have another dog training for help children practice their reading. His name is Bogeey and he is a beautiful long haired basset. Bogeey is well mannered and always has a smile on his face. Stop by the library on the second and fourth Mondays of the month to meet our newest library furry friend! Remember, we also have Sunny, the handsome white standard poodle visiting on the first and third Mondays of the month.
The Blanco Library needs your help! We need front desk volunteers for Monday afternoon 3-6pm, Wednesday mornings 10am-1, Friday mornings 10-1pm, Friday afternoon 1-4pm, and Friday afternoon 4-6pm. If you are interested in any of these positions, please come into the library and fill out an application. Be sure to let us know which one of these volunteer availabilities you want.
As always, remember to check our website at www.blancolib.org or call us at 830-833-4280 for more information.
