Jeff McMullen had the whole crowd laughing at Belleville Public Library's Summer Reading Wrap Up.  Due to weather, the performance and picnic needed to be moved indoors.  We greatly appreciate being able to use the school's choir room and Kid Club's space in the Middle School Commons. Congratulations to all of our grand prize winners, including Anthony Pollen who won the teen prize, a Kindle Fire.
