Last Day to Sign Up For Summer Reading


Wednesday, Aug. 31 is the LAST day to sign kids up for our Get Caught Reading summer reading program - and to help raise money to rebuild the Petit Goave Library in Haiti.

Statistics for Aug. 30, 2011
Did you know that over 7000 kids and teens signed up for Get Caught Reading this year? That's our highest number, ever!

For those already signed up, remember that the kids deadline to turn in reading logs and collect a prize is September 10. If every elementary student does so, we'll be able to send over $2000 to Haiti! And that doesn't include all of the extra donations we've received, from people like the Pocomoke Street Kids.

Thanks to everyone who has made this such a great summer for reading!
