Nice flickr set from The Loud Librarian: what a neat idea to have a Summer Reading Program Luau and put folks in a dunk tank. And to use flickr to share the images! Well Done! TLL writes: “Saturday (once again the hottest day in all of creation) was our end of Summer Reading Program luau block party. It was hours of work, but everyone had a good time, and Becca got some really great photos from the event.
