Ronald McDonald big hit at JHG Memorial Library Tuesday morning Photo follows this article By Ed Waggener Over 100 people were entertained by Ronald McDonald, Thursday morning, June 28, 2005, on the lawn behind the Janice Holt Giles Memorial Library. Parents and children filled the chairs were lined up on the sloping lawn, which makes a natural amphitheatre, and there were many more people standing. Ronald McDonald was promoting reading through magic and humor, and the kids loved it, almost as much as the adults. There was spillover parking from the event into Tommy Phelps' parking lot, with Bill Bailey's "Book Mo'Bill" and about a dozen cars there. The event will mark the wind up of the Summer Reading Program at the library. The event was sponsored by the McDonald's Corporation. "We try to get Ronald McDonald here as often as we can. The last time he was here was two years ago," Library Director Lee Ann Jessee said. Mrs. Jessee said that, while the event marks the end of the Summer Reading Program, the Regular Story Hour goes on all year. It's every Wednesday at 10:00 a.m., and is for all ages. "But," she noted, "in the school year we gear it mostly to pre-schoolers." The director noted at the back lawn is used for other outdoor occasions. "We hold our Haunted Halloween program there," she said. On July 18, 2005, the library will have a movie night at 5:30 p.m. "We're hoping to show Shreck II," she said.
