State Sen. Lana Theis coming to read at the Library

 Manchester’s State Sen. Lana Theis will read to elementary age students in Manchester on Tuesday, Aug. 13 from 4 to 5 pm at Manchester District Library, located at 912 City Road. The event is being held to encourage young people to read and to help promote the senator’s summer reading competition.

Theis previously announced her “Be a Senator for a Day” summer reading contest, which is open to all students residing in the 22nd Senate District. Students may participate by obtaining a special bookmark from the Manchester District Library, any other community libraries located in the district, or from Theis’ office.

Students’ completed bookmarks should be mailed to Theis’ office, and one winner will be selected and will be invited to spend a day at the Capitol with Theis. The contest ends on Sept. 1.

Please contact Theis’ office at 517-373-2420 or email SenLTheis@Senate.Michigan.gov with questions or to request a bookmark.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
