Bug Hunt - Let's meet our contenders!
Well the Summer Reader 2010 Bug Hunt has been kicked off, and let me tell you folks, things could get heated!
In case you don't remember how the last Bug Hunt went, here's a review:
1st Place -- York County Library (VA) -- $300 Amazon Gift Card
2nd Place -- Contra Costa County Library (CA) -- $150 Amazon Gift Card
3rd Place -- High Plains Library District (CO) -- $60 Amazon Gift Card
That competition was down to the wire - we had last minute bug reports flying around like crazy!!!
So let's see this year's lineup:
Manhattan Public Library - Kansas
Harris County Public Library - Texas
Contra Costa County Library - California
York County Public Library - Virginia
Westerville Public Library - Ohio
Maricopa County Library District - Arizona
Two of our top contenders are back for another round! Will the experienced bug hunters prevail or will one of the rookies lead the pack? Check back for point reports and updates! This could become a nail biter!
