‘Simply Summer…Just Add Reading’, Lake Villa District Library’s 2021 summer reading program, was a great success. 2,091 people participated and together, read for over 45,000 days.
LVDL’s reading programs have long benefited a charity and 2021 was no exception. Participants agreed to read (or be read to) for 20 days and for every completed reading log, the LVDL Foundation donated $1 to the Lake Villa Township Food Pantry. This year’s donation totaled $2,400.00.
