(West Georgia) — Mildred Brady is this year’s West Georgia Regional Library Adult Summer Reading winner! The Carrollton native received her prize package from WGRL Assistant Director Martha Goodson.
Brady is a regular library patron, and she was thrilled to have won. “I never win anything” she remarked to one library staff member. The prize package included everything someone would need for a night out on the town including gift cards for new clothes, restaurants, coffee, movies, and more.
Over 9,230 people in Carroll, Douglas, Haralson, Heard, and Paulding counties signed up for summer reading in 2014. This is a system-wide record, breaking last year’s total by more than 800 participants.
“We’re very pleased with the support we’ve received from the community,” said WGRL Director Roni Tewksbury. “We were able to have 500 programs throughout the region this summer to encourage a love of reading and science for people of all ages.”
