As the school year winds down, we wind up for summer reading!!! Join us on June 4th for our summer reading kickoff party and sign up for our summer reading challenge. Festivities will start at 1:00 pm with inflatables provided by To the Moon inflatables. At 3:00 pm we will have free snow cones provided by Janie Clark from Brightmoor. At 5:30 pm we will have our first performer of the summer: Out of the Box: Dino Discovery.

We look forward to seeing you guys this summer! We have prizes to give away throughout the summer for all ages (even adults!), so this is a great opportunity to incentivize your children (or yourselves!) to read while school is out.

P.S. don't worry-- if you miss the kickoff party, you can still sign up for Summer Reading after June 4th.
