This year’s theme, “Unearth a Story,” invites children and families to explore reading, imagination, and discovery through a fun, dinosaur‑themed summer adventure.
Registration continues through July 1, either online or in person at the library. Participants can pick up their game boards during regular library hours and begin tracking their reading and activities throughout the summer. Children will have opportunities to earn prizes and rewards as they complete their goals.
To celebrate the start of the program, the library will host a Summer Reading Kickoff Event on Saturday, June 13, from 11 AM to 2 PM at Robert Reed Park. The event will feature games, activities, and family‑friendly fun to welcome readers into the program.
