Andrew Carnegie Free Library hosted a Summer Reading Celebration on Wednesday August 18, 2004. Joe Wos, popular area cartoonist, began the celebration at 11 a.m. with a unique blend of stories and live cartoon illustrations. The program continued with refreshments provided by Cold Stone Creamery in Collier Town Square.

The Summer Reading Celebration included presentation of certificates to children who completed the Andrew Carnegie Free Library Summer Reading Program. These youngsters earned Book Bucks by reading books and completing activities throughout the summer. Children received and redeemed their Book Bucks for prizes including books, puzzles and small toys at the Library's Trading Post during the celebration. All children who attended received a small number of Book Bucks so that everyone could take home a Trading Post prize.

Children who participated in Summer Reading 2004 but were unable to attend the party may still receive prizes. Contact Molly Stockdale for details by calling (412)276-3456 or e-mailing her. Click here to email Molly.
