“Color Our World” is the theme for this year’s summer reading program at Saline District Library. Beginning June 9 and running through August 9, library patrons are encouraged to register and track their reading for chances to win prizes.
For kids ages newborn to 12, one minute of reading equals one point. Children can also earn points by writing book reviews and completing missions. When readers have reached 750 points, they will receive a completion certificate. Prizes and brag tags will be awarded throughout the weeks.
Teen readers have two options. They can track their reading time, earning one point for every minute of reading. They can also track by the book, with each book equaling 100 points. Prizes will be awarded at 200, 500, and 1000 points, along with weekly drawings for participants. Each prize point equals one entry into the grand prize drawing on August 11.
Adult readers are also encouraged to participate. Adult patrons who read five books will get a prize. In addition, every book that is read is worth 100 points, and patrons will get an entry into the grand prize drawing for every 500 points earned. E-books and audiobooks also qualify. Magazine readers can count three magazines as one book.
Prizes have been sponsored by the Friends of the Library and will be awarded as local pick-ups only.

Sunny, with a high of 97 and low of 67 degrees. Partly Cloudy in the morning, sunny in the afternoon, clear overnight.
Would urge the city to NOT privatize the Rec Center or sell it.
Ali. There is a reason you don’t understand. You choose not to. Investing in our seniors health and wellbeing is much more important than investing in a recreation center that has continued to lose money and only serves a small portion of our city’s community.
We are seniors and fully familiar with both facilities. Perhaps what is not understood is the number of seniors who use the Recreation Center, in particular the aquatic center as arthritis for many of us means water is one of the few ways we can exercise. Many of course also use other areas of the facility.
EDIT: The Saline American Legion was a sponsor for this event, supplying the food for guests. SASC is grateful for their continued support.
Kudos to The Saline American Legion. They have been a consistent contributor to the SASC. Seniors in our community have earned and deserve the benefits that the senior center offers. Great work!
