FROSTY FRIENDS

 

Winter Reading Club!

 

 

 

 

(Please click on the above snowball icon for online complete rules. )

 

 

Please visit us at the Library or the Neighborhood Center

 

on or after December 27 with your Patchogue-Medford

 

library card to pick up your membership packet.  It

 

contains your chart, reading club and a few surprises.

 

 

All you have to do is read 6 books before February 19, 2012

 

and record them in your reading chart by writing about them or by

 

drawing a picture.  Ask us about opportunities for online

earn another prize.
