Exercise Your Mind at
the Library
The Greenville Public Library’s Adult Summer Reading Program is a
fabulous way to spend the hot, sunny months - reading your favorite
authors as you relax by the pool or on the porch. From 18th
century essayist Joseph Addison “Reading is to the mind what exercise
is to the body... Exercise your mind!” Along with the theme of
exercising your mind, you will be eligible for awesome prizes!
Promoting the theme of exercise the Library has partnered with three
local organizations to promote health and wellness in Darke
County. For every book, audiobook, ebook, or magazine that you
read you earn an entry into the drawing for one of three grand prize
packages valued at $150 each: the YMCA Package, the elementsLife
Package, and the Snap Fitness Package. Take this opportunity to
become both physically and mentally fit!
The YMCA Package includes a 3-month Adult Membership, a $25 Subway Gift
Certificate, a decorative wooden crate, a water bottle, and a beach
towel.
Director Sam Casalano says “The Darke County Y is again excited to
sponsor the Library’s reading program. At the Y we believe
reading is a fundamental life skill. As such the Y is committed to
building literacy skills in children we serve in our Child Development
Center, beginning as young as six weeks. The Y’s programs focus
on students‘ educational readiness and also places emphasis on
children's growth emotionally and physically. Whatever age a reader may
be, the Y supports programs that foster a healthy mind and there is no
better way to keep a mind healthy than through the enjoyment of a good
book.”
The elementsLife Yoga Studio Package includes a 3-month Adult
Membership, a $25 Subway Gift Certificate, a decorative wooden crate, a
Manduka Yoga Mat, and a water bottle. Director Emily Jasenski
loves to teach and educate others on the meaning and importance behind
Yoga practice which she takes beyond the physical realm to help
students understand the power behind this ancient form of movement. She
has experience with people suffering from physical, mental and
emotional limitations and has seen great success through her One to One
Subtle Energy Therapy Program.
The Snap Fitness Package includes a 3-month Adult Membership, a $25
Subway Gift Certificate, a decorative storage box, an Adidas Gym Bag,
and a water bottle. Owner B.J. Paulus says “Our mission is to change
lives with our result-driven culture both inside and outside our gym
walls. Our goal is to encourage, motivate and drive our members to
success. We are here to show support and ensure every member reaches
his or her potential.”
