Attention young readers, here's a fun way to gear up for the Summer Reading Program at Richmond Memorial Library. It is a contest to find "Richmond Reader." Here's the scoop!
Flo the Flamingo is on the loose in the city of Batavia. She is trying to find Richmond Reader and needs your help. Richmond has sent a message in a bottle that he is lost on a deserted island. Flo must find him and return him to the Richmond Memorial Library by June 28 for the beginning of the Summer Reading Program.
Each week starting May 9, Flo will check a different business or agency to see if they know where the deserted island might be located. Weekly clues to the places Flo is checking may be found on the Children’s page of the library’s website <http://www.batavialibrary.org/> or by visiting the Children’s Room. The library is located at 19 Ross St.
When you find Flo, she will have words from the message that Richmond Reader sent. A prize will be given to children each time they find Flo and record these words. A special award will be given to those that follow Flo all the way to the end of her journey.
For questions or more information, contact Kelly March, youth services library assistant, at 343-9550.
