Bye, bye Reading Bugs

This is the reading bug's last post. The reading bug will be flying away shortly to a new library. Thank you all for such wonderful story times over the past three years.

Look for a new season of story times this September

The Lee County Library's "Baby" (ages birth to 2) and Preschool (ages 3 to 5) story times are on vacation and will resume after Labor Day.

Wednesday, Sept. 8 at 10:00 a.m.: ages birth to 2

Thursday, Sept. 9 at 11:00 a.m.: ages 3 to 5

Thanks for a great summer, everyone!

We made a splash with preschool story time this summer!
