The first meeting of the Summer Reading Program Book Discussion Group (SRP BDG) was held on June 13th in the Gold Room of the Civic Center Library, where 6 of us met to discuss Gary Paulsen's Harris & Me. The participation was great! Some very good points were raised, including the question of how this title had come to be chosen. Much spirited discussion ensued! It would be great if, next summer, we can plan an early meeting to decide jointly on the books to read and discussed. The Summer Reading Program theme will change, so the book choices can be completely different.
Just a reminder: if SRP BDG participants haven't picked up a "boarding pass" for the SRP at the Reference/Information desk, don't forget to stop & get one. The prizes, $100 gift certificates to three Old Town restaurants, will be drawn monthly, which means that the swift and excellent readers of the BDG can enter a boarding pass each month. And be sure to ask for the free coupon for a drink at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf (at Miller & Indian School).
