Fizz! Boom! Read!

It's almost time for the start of our Summer Library Program.  This year's theme is science based and called 'Fizz! Boom! Read!'.  Each week will be dedicated to a different topic like colors, weather, oceans and our five senses.  The weekly Storytimes (Tuesdays and Wednesday at 10:30 am) will reflect the theme of the week as will the craft projects.

Registration for the Summer Library Program will begin on Monday, June 2 and end on Friday, June 20.  Ages from preschool through 12th grade are welcome to participate.  Participants will be placed in one of three categories : Preschool, School-age (Kindergarten - 5th grade) or Teen (6th - 12th grade).  Even if your child can't read on their own yet, take part with the 'Read-To-Me' program.

Each child will set his/her own reading goals.  We recommend that the goal be set low enough for the child to realistically reach while leaving time for other summertime activities.

The last day to report on books that have been read is Friday, July 11 and the closing celebration for all participants who meet their reading goals will be on Wednesday, July 16.

Have a happy summer of discovery!
