It's Week 5 of the Summer Reading Club!

Here we are in Week 5 of the Summer Reading Club already! If you haven't joined yet, it's not too late, even though only 3 weeks are left. Join, read and report on at least one book, and get your invitation to our exclusive end of summer DJ party. This party is open to Summer Reading Club Members only. Don't forget that you will also receive a prize for signing up, and a weekly prize every week that you report on a book. You also get a raffle ticket for each book you report on, giving you the chance to win a gift certificate to Borders, Target, a local restaurant, Bob's Stores, or more!

Meanwhile, here are the activities we have planned this week:

Monday, July 24, 12:30 - 1:30 So You Want to Become a Vegetarian

Wednesday, July 26, 12:00 - 1:30 Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants - the Suffolk Tour
You can still join us for the denim-inspired craft program. This week, we will be making denim wallets.

Our neatballs were delicious! We will have more cooking programs this fall.

To join the summer reading club, you need to come to the library with your Patchogue-Medford Library card. To report on a book, you fill out a card with your name and a little about the book. These cards become your raffle tickets. If you write a book review, you are entered into a special raffle, and we will publicize the review to other teens. New York State also has a special prize for people writing reviews - a weekend in NYC! Our reading club ends on August 12, but the reviews to be submitted to the state must be submitted by August 7.
