Copper Library Summer Readers logged in 600 hours of reading

Over the summer the Copperopolis branch library hosted their yearly Summer Reading Program titled "one World Many Stories" from June 7th to August 12, 2011, with 42 children participating in the reading program, logging in just over 600 hours of summer reading.

The summer reading program wasn't just about reading, it was about crafts, exploration of other countries, and sharing stories. Volunteers, Aurora Qualls and Carla Lucas, arranged free weekly craft classes for the children. Each craft correlated to a story from 'around the world' that was read to the children.

As children read, they earned tickets that could be used to 'shop' at the prize store. At the prize store there were book bags, games, books, puzzles, craft kits and much more.

Copperopolis Branch Library Top Summer Readers were:

1st, Katrice Buchanan, 100 hours logged reading time.

2nd, Lily Jackson, 50 hourslogged  reading time.

3rd, Jessica Goodspeed, 40 hours logged reading time.

Congratulations GREAT summer readers!
