Iowa Public Television's Dan Wardell will be visiting Independence!!

“Catch the Reading Bug” is being offered to area youth this summer at the Independence Public Library. The summer library program encourages reading for pleasure and provides constructive activities during the summer break. 

To add to the fun and create a sense of challenge to keep the kids reading, we offer incentives and prizes during the program. The goal is to read for 15 minutes or more each day.  Registration for the program begins on June 4th at the library.  Buggy Bucks will be given when children meet periodic reading goals.  Children will be able to spend their money on great prizes which are currently on display at the Bugs Galore Store.

Local businesses and individuals have generously donated prizes and incentives to give to each participant for their reading efforts.
