Looking for fun this summer? Relaxation? Adventure? History? Culture? Bluffton Public Library has something for everyone in its "Novel Destinations" silent auction.
More than 30 items are available, including bed and breakfast stays at the historic Inn at Irwin Gardens, the Housley House, the Pines of Dresden, Simple Pleasures, the Dunkle One-room Schoolhouse and the Gingerbread House on Little Traverse Bay.
Beginning June 6, readers of all ages will travel the globe this summer as part of Bluffton Public Library's Summer Reading Program.
Children will explore places from Oceania to Russia through stories, crafts, music, snacks and other activities during the K-5 Summer Reading Club, "One World, Many Stories."
Children in this program must register at the Children's Desk and are required to read five hours during June and July to complete the program.
