Our summer reading program, "Oceans of Possibilities," is underway. This program is for readers of all ages and it’s not too late to sign up. Get a bingo on your card, and bring it in to enter into the raffle to win great prizes at the end of the summer. In addition, each time you return a bingo card, you get to choose from a Pirate’s Cove token for a free game of mini golf or free books to keep.
