Alice Chavez, Librarian  

 

It’s that time of the year again - time for summer reading fun! This summer’s theme is “Dig Into Reading”. The children’s library will be transformed into a reading cave, where you will need flashlights to read, and there will be excavations for all kinds of buried treasures.
All are welcome to join us, read loads of good books and win lots of prizes. Sign-ups
start Monday, June 24 and the fun begins July 1.

 
Preschool Storytime, ages 2-5, is every Tuesday at 10:00 am;
 
Book Worms, Tweens, is Monday at 3:30 pm and
 
Book Buddies, K-2 grades, is every Wednesday at 3:30 pm.
 
Come out and bring your friends!
 

~ Adult Summer Reading ~

Summer reading fun isn’t just for the kids…

This year our theme is "Groundbreaking Reads" and the display case will feature items from our large gardening collection as well as gar-den-themed mystery series. Fill out an entry form for every book you read during the month of July and be eligible to win a gift basket in the drawing on Friday, July 26.
