What a summer we’ve had at the Boyceville Public Library!
Our Wednesday morning Storytime averaged 30 people in attendance. 50 elementary school age kids took part in the “Universe of Stories” summer reading program.
A dozen teens joined the teen summer program and our book club has over a dozen regular attendees.
Our monthly movie nights are popular with families who come to enjoy free popcorn and the latest movies in our backroom.
All of this goes on while we are conducting the regular business of running a library. The library staff is busy purchasing the latest books, movies, magazines and audiobooks, getting them ready for check out, helping folks with their Internet needs and so much more.
We feel very fortunate to have such an active library community with so many people who help us out whenever we need a hand. Parents, aunts and grandmas joined us on our field trip to UW River Falls with all the summer reading program kids.
We couldn’t have done it without their help! We had special help setting up our field trip from our own Marguerite Blodgett whose husband, Dr. ”B” a physicist at the University, set up an amazing day of interactive learning for us.
While the summer children’s programs have finished at the Boyceville Public Library kids from preschool through grade 12 are encouraged to continue reading.
Preschool children can take part in the 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten program and earn free books.
School age kids can keep track of their reading minutes through August 30 to be entered into a drawing for a 4 pack of movie tickets.
August 1st through the 16th everyone who checks out an item can enter the drawing for a backpack with school supplies.
Recently the Boyceville Public Library received some sizeable donations that we are very thankful for.
These donations are the seed for a new library and have been placed in a special savings account.
While there are no concrete plans yet for a new library, we know we are in need of a larger space and want to start preparing.
On Saturday, August 17th we will hold our 19th annual Cucumber Run.
To sign up go to our website at www.boycevillelibrary.org.
This is our biggest fund raiser of the year and another thing we could not do without all the amazing volunteers.
We are forever grateful here at the Boyceville Public Library!
