Can't believe we are in the middle of June already.  The kids will be back in school in 2 months and it seems like summer vacation just started.  It is a busy time with kids playing baseball, summer basketball and helping out on the farm.

Susan Greenfield reported that the "Book Fair" winners were Amanda Koeller with a Hawks Nest certificate for $20; Lori Healy $10 and Carrol Allen for $5. She would like to thank everyone who supported the library.  Susan also sent in $175 worth of box tops, so please keep saving those box tops.
