With 898 hours read since June 4, Fall Creek area youth shot
for moon and grabbed onto the stars! 59 youth ages birth-18 actively
participated in Fall Creek Public Library’s annual Summer Reading Program. By
reading and recording how many hours they read or were read to, children and
teens earned prizes purchased by the Library and donated by local community
members and businesses.
Youth were also able to forego prizes and instead have money
donated in their name to Beaver Creek Reserve Observatory. “We want to
encourage kids to think about others in their community. By offering this choice,
children can see how their actions positively benefit others,” said Youth
Programs Coordinator, Jenna Gilles. A total of $50.00 will be donated to Beaver
Creek Reserve Observatory for Kael, Aiden, and Allie Sanfelippo and Brian,
Megan, and Katie Johnston. Thank you, friends, for thinking of BCR :)
This summer’s Top Readers read 504 hours, which is over half
the total hours read by all participants! Top Readers are:
In Birth - 4K group: Eliana P with 57 hours.
In Kindergarten-11 group: Kael S. with 46 hours, Aiden S. with 104 hours, and Olivia F. with 167 hours.
In our eldest age group: Mayachel S. with 23 hours, Sophie K. with 51 hours, and Jamie P. with 56 hours.
A huge congratulations to all our readers and read-to-ers
and a great big “thank you!” to our numerous sponsors and donors.
