The Awards Afternoon Tea for the 2015/6 Summer Reading Club was held in the Community Hub on Monday, 23rd May, the first day of Library Week. Over forty Club members and their guests gathered to enjoy a performance by star Grenfell entertainer Zippo Zappo (alias Paul Westman), watch the presentation of Awards and Participation certificates and partake of a sumptuous afternoon tea courtesy of the Friends of Grenfell Library.

| Little kids and big 'kids' loved Zippo Zappo's performance. |

All good magicians can pull rabbits out of
hats - or at least out of boxes!!

During the Summer Reading Club members were challenged to read ten books between mid-December and the end of January. Twenty-eight met the challenge ad received Winner certificates while another eight read fewer than ten books but also returned reading logs and so were honoured as participants in the Club. It was great to see quite a few people who have been involved over a number of years receiving awards along with some new names. In some cases it is a family affair with parents and children joining up - or at least mothers and children .... it would be great to see some Dads involved next year!

| The large group of members who met the reading challenge with the librarian. Was it the award certificates or the thought of afternoon tea that produced the grins??! |
