Summer Reading Kick-Off!

Join us for our Summer Reading Kickoff Bash, a fun-filled event perfect for families of all ages. We're celebrating the start of the library's summer reading program with an afternoon packed with exciting activities, food, and a FOAM PARTY! Bring your bathing suit, a towel, maybe some goggles, because it’s going to get wet!

Enjoy Old Fashioned Concessions signature lemonades, cool craft stations, and face painting, as well as popcorn, cotton candy, hotdogs, and the Kona Ice Truck! Maybe we will have a few special guests!
