Summer Reading 2025

Read, Renew, Repeat

 

Welcome to Summer Reading and a Summer Full of Fun!

We hope you will enjoy the programming we have planned for you this summer, and that you will Level Up At Your LIbrary so we can help an Emu and a Slow Loris if we read 2000 hours all together.   ReadSquared provides suggestions for books to read, reading lists, bingo,  games, and this year access to more stories for your entertainment. (If you prefer not to log your minutes online we will log them for you if you leave them for us here in the library.) For information about our Summer Story Hours visit our Story Hours Page.

We will be using partial online registration for some of our larger programs. We will be manually okaying online registrations in coordination with our walk in registrations. We will be assessing how this all works for all of us.

Summer Reading Kick Off     1:00 - 3:00

Plan on joining us on the side of the library for an afternoon of fun and to start your Summer Reading off right! We will have Summer Reading Swag, games, tattoos, and help for signing up on the ReadSqaured App. In the event of rain, or extreme heat we know how to move this event indoors and still have a ton of fun.
