More exciting Summer Reading Program events this week! This week our Summer Movies begin and sign up for the Summer Reading Program continues. Summer Reading is for everyone — all ages are included. If you haven’t come by the library to sign up yet, do it this week and get started reading for summer fun and prizes.
This year for children birth to 4 years and children 4 to 12 years the subject is Every Hero Has a Story. For Teens, ages 12 to 17, the theme is Unmask. The topic for adults, ages 18 and up, is Escape the Ordinary. Every book counts toward the Summer Reading Program prizes. Come into the library, sign up and start reading. Don’t forget to pick up a calendar with all the Summer Reading Program events listed.
Through June and July there will be NO story time. Story Time resumes in August. Until then join the Summer Reading Program with your children.
June 9 we begin our summer movie program. Come to the Jennings Community Room, hang out in the cool, eat some popcorn, have a drink, meet some new friends, visit with some old friends (quietly, of course) and enjoy a FREE movie on the big screen. What’s the movie? Come by or call the library to find out. Due to licensing considerations, we can’t print the title in the paper, but it’s going to be great.
June 11, we have a Summer Reading Program event called Community Heroes. For this event you must have your own car or driver. During this event, for all ages, we will take a trip to the 911 Center for a tour. We’ll meet some of the local Heroes who stand ready to meet any emergency. The Library will not be providing transportation, so make sure you have your own ride for this exciting and informative Hero event. Thursday, June 11, 1 p.m., @ Adams.
Don’t forget our ongoing program One Thousand Books before Kindergarten that continues all year. If you have a child of pre-kindergarten age, stop by the circulation desk and sign up. You’ll get a packet of materials to keep a record of your child’s progress as well as fun games and activities. This will be a wonderful addition to your child’s memory book. Someday your child will be astonished at all the books she read when she was little and too young to remember reading.
This is not a misprint. We are showing TWO movies at the library this week. Come to one, come to both. We will be showing different movies each time. Come by the library or call to find out what’s on the big screen then join us as the Jennings Community Room becomes a movie theater for a day. Popcorn and drinks will be served. Don’t miss it.
Summer is always a great time because there’s no school. It’s even better at the library with movies and books to read for fun and prizes. Sign up today and have a great summer at the library!
