Summer Reading has come to an end

Published on 08/19/26

With mixed emotions, I am announcing that Summer Reading 2026 has come to an end. The ice cream has been served. The tickets have been counted. And the prize winners have been notified.

Although I am sad to see it come to an end, I am ecstatic to announce that there were 545 participants who contributed to the 3,386 stickers that were placed on the Making Place banner. That is $3,386 earned for The Making Place! That is $536 more than last year. WOW! A HUGE thank you to the Whitefish Credit Union for sponsoring this program again! Signed: Gina, Youth Services Librarian.
