Children’s Programs

Summer Reading: It’s not too late to sign up for our summer reading program. More than 300 children are reading books and earning free slices of pizza, Happy Meals, donuts, balloons, and free books. Children ages 4 through grade five may register in the children’s room. The program ends August 12, so don’t miss out!

Middle School Madness: Students entering grades 6-9 can participate in our young adult summer reading program, Middle School Madness. No registration is necessary. Read books between June 27 and August 12 and submit an entry form for every 50 pages that you read. A list of donated prizes is available in the children’s department. The more you read the better your chances of winning. The drawing will take place after August 12.
