Reading Aloud Family Time (RAFT)

RAFT Ends March 3rd!

Just a little reminder: If you and your family are participating in our Read Aloud Family Time (RAFT) program this year, all books must be logged by Saturday, March 3rd. As long as your titles are entered by then, you will have a week's grace period (until Friday, March 9th) to come in and pick up your free copy of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

If you haven't heard about RAFT yet, there's still a little time to get started! Check out the details here.
