From the Desk of Mr. T

MrTHeadShot Hi Everyone!

Summer Library Program is coming! Are you as excited as I am? I would hold a book in each arm all summer long if I could! The program runs June 16-August 11, 2018, but you can pre-register now at troypl.org/summerlibrary. We will even send you a few reminders to remind you of the June 16 start date.

The Youth program is designed for birth-12 year olds, and is a free and easy way to earn prizes for reading and enjoying Library-related activities while keeping the summer slide monster at bay!
This year's program includes:

Online activity logging
Weekly prizes for those completing at least one of the TPL Top Ten activities each week
Fun, free events to attend (first priority to Troy residents)

This year's TPL Top Ten:

Read a Book (everyone's favorite!)
Listen to an Audiobook
Down a Digital title
Attend a Library Event (events require registration; first priority to Troy residents)
Be a Troy Tourist—visit Stage Nature Center, Troy Historic Village, Troy Family Aquatic Center, or Troy Community Center
Watch a DVD or Blu-ray
Listen to a Music CD
Read a Magazine
Read a Book about Music—because Libraries Rock!
Read a New Item for Kids—published within the last six months

Check our online calendar for the event listings.

Yours Truly,
Mr. T
