Want to be Russell's Top Reader? Whoever checks out
and reads the most books in a month will
get a sign in their yard and a special prize. Any school-aged child is
eligible. Program ends Labor Day Weekend.
Winner will be determined at the end of each month. The winner for June was Boston Shounkwiler
