		It's time to "Dig into Reading". Registration begins Thursday, June 27th and continues throughout the summer. Each summer we reward children for keeping up with their reading skills during their summer vacation. It’s SO important for children to read on a regular basis. Studies show that children who read a few minutes each day will start school in September ahead of those who don’t. That’s why we will reward children for reading a minimum of 15 minutes a day. After five days of reading, a prize is awarded. Up to 10 prizes may be earned. This program is for children age 2 – those entering grade 5. Pre-readers may count books read TO them. June 27 and 28, you may register from 9:30 AM to 4 PM. Our high school volunteers will be here during July and August to register children and hand out prizes at the following times: Mon, Tues, Wed. 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM Thurs, Fri 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM

His love for scullery maid Evangeline remains unspoken as he wincingly woos the eagerly merry widow Mrs. Quickly, but Brown's raucous rugrats have a plan to make things right, especially after they've come under the benevolent influence of Nanny McPhee, whose peculiar brand of discipline works wonders for everyone involved.

		Dracut's diverse landscape, ranging from pastoral fields to vestiges of former textile mills, alludes to a history just as diverse, which can be traced back to 1665. The town was the first permanent Massachusetts settlement north of the Merrimack River; however, Dracut Revisited explores more closely the town's recent 20th-century history. Throughout the years, Dracut citizens have been industry employees at places such as Beaver Brook Mills and the Dracut Navy Yard. The town had the region's premier resort at Lake Mascuppic, the Lakeview Ballroom. It has also been home to numerous dairy farms, including Shaw Farm, which celebrated its centennial anniversary in 2008 and is one of a handful of active dairy farms that remain in the state. Dracut has a long record of serving in the nation's conflicts, from the American Revolution to September 11, 2001. Dracut has made great sacrifices and has been proud to honor the sacrifices of its citizens. Dracut Junior High School history teacher, Rebecca Duda, is the author of the forthcoming book , “Dracut Revisited,” part of Arcadia Publishing’s “Images of America” series. it is scheduled to be released on July 16th. All proceeds from the sale will be donated to the Dracut Scholarship Foundation.

		Contact: Nanci Milone Hill 978-454-5474 nhill@mvlc.org
		On a scorching hot day in Fall River, back in August of 1892, a heinous crime occurred. Spinster Lizzie Borden was accused, tried, and acquitted for the vicious axe murders of her father and stepmother. This true unsolved mystery has fascinated people for over 100 years. Two people died on that day in 1892, but Lizzie continues to live on in American folklore. This performance by the Delvina Theater Company includes a mock trial that invites the audience to participate by questioning Lizzie, and voting on her guilt or innocence. This “edutainment” production features Lynne Moulton and Joseph Zamparelli in multiple roles depicting Lizzie’s story and educating the audience members so that they may be informed “jurists”. Did she or didn’t she? You be the judge. The cast opens up to the audience for discussion after the performance. This program is sponsored by the Friends of Dracut Library.

Jim is certain this is the adventure he's been dreaming of and sets out to find the fabled Treasure Planet. MPAA rating: PG; for adventure action and peril.
