[R2R-OR] June 5th Shoutout

[BERGQUIST Greta * SLO]

Hello everybody,

Whew, it's Friday! So many summer reading programs started this week and others are coming up fast. Thank you for all the work you've done so far to get ready for summer and for the work you'll put in the next few weeks. We know it's a LOT of work to host and implement a summer program for kids and families, and we know it REALLY MATTERS in your community!
