The Summer Library Program theme is "Be Creative At Your Library". Kids will be encouraged to be creative with their imaginations and their hands.
The program begins on Saturday, June 13 at 11 am with a program presented by Storyteller Glenda Bonin. After the program, kids can register to participate in the Summer Library Program and earn prizes for reading.
Our Grand Finale Program for the Summer Library Program will feature performer S. Frank Stringham (just call him "S"), a delightfully funny performer. You never know what S will pull out of his hat next! It could be music, magic or balloon animals. Whatever he does, S is sure to make everyone in the family laugh!
Other programs are being planned, so check back for more information.
