Summer Programs

Our Summer Reading Program, “Ice Cream for Books,” began with a Pizza Party kick off celebration on June 29th.  Children who register will come to the library once a week to record in their Ice Cream logs
how many books (3-7 year old) or Chapters (ages 8 and up) they have read for the previous week.
Children can come in anytime Monday through Thursday 11:00am to 8:00pm.

Each week children will receive a ticket for a chance to pick a puppet prize.  There will be 2 winners
each week.  The winners will be notified on Friday via telephone.

Each participating child will receive a reading log and a bag with a few goodies inside.

A Word to Parents:  Reading over the summer helps children maintain the skills developed during the school year without the constraints of “must" reading.  It gives them a chance to explore personal interests
through recreational (fun) reading.
