THANK YOU for your participation in the Flint's Summer Reading Program for Children!

This year, we had over 200 kiddos take part, with 144 children (entering grades K-6) completing 20 hours of reading to qualify for prize packs from Topsfield Fair!

(An email will be sent to our winners when prize packs from the Topsfield Fair are available for pick-up, usually the first two weeks of September.)

Congratulations and thanks again to all our readers!
