The youth of Atkinson have pulled together and have WON the
summer reading challenge! At the time of
this press release there are well over 500 raffle tickets submitted between the
children’s room and the teen jar. This
means on the night of the finale there will be times during the night where the
Youth Services Director will be in a designated space where registered summer
reading participants (only) will have a chance to shoot water from toys we
provide at Kathy. If your child doesn’t read the newspaper you
can keep them in suspense as we will not announce it but we won’t lie if
asked. ;)
SUMMER
READING FINALE: ON your MARK, GET SET, it's time to PAR-TAY for
the closure of summer reading. Pack up a
picnic and the kiddos. Eat the light
supper that you have prepared in the courtyard, learn some western line dancing
with Gail Eaton and friends (SURE, wear your cowboy boots!), and we'll be
serving delicious ice cream sundaes with a variety of great toppings at the
break that you can choose from.
Register the entire family (all ages) so we have enough ice
cream and toppings, and we can notify you should the venue change if the New
England weather does not cooperate.
Invite everyone as long as you account for them in the registration.
Also, we are having a very special guest invited that most of
the littles will love—PETE THE CAT. Pete
will be wandering through at some point and be able to pose for photos with
children. He doesn’t talk, but he’s very
friendly and understands gestures.
ROUGH Itinerary: (Supper on the back lawn anytime--use our
outdoor seating or bring a blanket and/or lawn chairs so you can be comfy.) Arrive at 6 and stay until 7:45 and you won’t
miss a thing!

As you are reading this you may wonder if you are childless if
you are welcome. EVERYONE is welcome to
register, the only portion of the evening slated for summer reading
participants only will be soaking the Youth Services Director. Only the summer reading youth will be
eligible.
