More than half way through, the 2009 Teen Summer Reading program is going strong. We’ve got almost 200 reviews by over 40 teens.
Numbers are a little low this year, compaired to last. Maybe I should have offered to dye my hair again.
So, it’s not too late to have your fines forgiven or to win a weekly prize! Get those reviews in! And see you at the end of Summer Reading SSB Tourney on August 8!!

This Tuesday, September 9th, I will be dying my hair because you guys read and reviewed a crazy amount this summer (450 or so reviews submitted). Please come by the TeenSpace at the Central Library at around 4:30 pm to see what you’ve done to me. BTV10 and the Bellingham Herald will be there, so come take your due credit.
I’ll be posting before and after pictures on here, but you know the color will look better in person!
