Bicycles





Marathon Public Library branch of Alpine Public Library summer reading program begins on June4th. We will have a drawing for four bicycles:

Children read 10 books in 10 weeks and can put their name in the drawing for a bike. The Junior and Senior High reads 10 books and writes 10 pages to be viewed by library friends and will receive $100.00 for their effort. Must finish all 10 books and papers. Our goal is to include all ages into our program and have the children reading and using the library.

Our program includes a reading time, crafts, puppet shows, and fun from 1-2 pm, Wed. during the month of June and July. Our end of summer program party date will be scheduled sometime in August. Come join the fun at the Marathon Public Library. We welcome parents to join the fun and anyone that would like to volunteer to help. marathonlib@yahoo.com Please come by and register for the program. 432-386-4136 Donations are being accepted to help with the funding for the older grades.
