50 free programs + 1,277 people = very successful summer library program

Posted by Fred Steiner on Tuesday, July 30, 2013

Submitted by Amanda Bennett

They say that it takes a village...and it does. Without the generous support of so many Ada businesses, and so many families willing to participate in Summer Reading 2013, we wouldn’t have had the successful year that we did.

Thank you to all of the businesses and individuals who made donations to be used toward our program, and for those individuals who were always willing to stop and offer assistance; because of the support of the community we were able to offer over 50 free programs in the six weeks of Summer Reading and had 1,277 people show up for our programs!

Many thanks to:
