- Registration begins at 6:00 PM: bring your current library card, or 2 forms of i.d. to register for a library card.
- Byron Public Library patrons who want to participate in Julia Hull's Summer Reading Program, but who do not currently have a library card must register for one at Bryon Public Library. We apologize that we cannot register another library's patron.
- Weather permitting we'll be outdoors for the 7:00 PM Whip-Guy performance, so don't forget to bring lawn chairs or blankets for seating.
- If the weather does not cooperate with our festivities, we'll move inside to the Stillman Valley High School gymnasium.
