Movies on tap for Friday at Hoke Library By Elizabeth Burgess Our Summer Reading Program is off to a wonderful start. We have had such delightful children to attend our reading programs and our story hours. Betsy McNeill has spent many hours planning for the programs and story hours, and it is evident that her hard work has not been in vain. The library circulation is way up, and the interest in reading displayed by the young people is keen. A reminder to parents, our Monday morning summer reading programs will not be held this coming Monday, July 2. We will con tinue our programs on Monday, July 9. We had Doris Austin to entertain the children on June 18. She sang songs and really got all the childen involved in the enjoyment of music. We appreciate Doris giving the library her time and talent. Steve McNeill treated the children to the world of wood carving and got the children involved in doing some creating of their own. We thank Steve for being a gracious volunteer in our summer reading program. On July 9, Robert Gatlin will be with us to give the children some interesting information on the history of Raeford and Hoke Coun ty. Robert has been with us before, and we certainly look forward to hearing him. The library is offering movies every Friday night beginning June 30. These movies are being shown at different times, so please take note of the following schedule. We would love to have you join us on Friday nights. Bring the entire family for a free movie and lots ol fun!
