I always have the first prize draw for my summer reading program right before the 4th. I collect red white and blue prizes and whoever turned in a reading record by then is eligible to pick. I had 30. Little flags, sheets of stickers, pack of skittles (red) that was given to me. Necklaces (3/1.00) from $ store. Things I buy discounted or collect free during the year.
I have a book display starting before memorial day with books for all ages... The Bill of Rights, The Flag, bios of presidents and wives, Memoria Day, The 50 States, The Constitution etc. Use patriotic fabric as a background and I found a little Uncle Sam at the thrift store
I am planning an open house with summer decorations and flags, etc. I am the new librarian and have streamlined some of the process. I did not realize that the "old" librarian opened the library doors and stood in the door after services! So I am doing that this Sunday! We have 1508 books and I just did a new index by title and content. There are approximately 30 different colored dots for various topics but I am narrowly that down to just main topics. Too many to keep track of.
I am hoping to get a little interest going!
Happy Summer.
