You don’t need to spend a ton of money this summer to experience new things and get a taste of adventure – you can stay close to home and immerse yourself in scientific exploration, comedy, art, music, and more. This summer, adventure begins at your library – that’s the theme of our annual Summer Reading Program.

Join us at Mutz Park Tuesday, June 11, at 11 a.m. for a presentation from Southwest Dairy Farmers. Their trained instructors will demonstrate how to milk a cow, describe how milk goes from the farm to the consumer, and answer questions from the audience. This innovative program brings the dairy experience directly to children.

Story Time is hosted every Wednesday from 10:30 – 11 a.m. Children are treated to stories, fun activities, and a snack. Before leaving, your child may choose a prize from the treasure chest. 

After-School Game Time is held each Thursday from 3:30 – 5 p.m. Children can play the PS5 on the large screen in the meeting room and board games are also available.

NEW BOOKS: “A Calamity of Souls “ by David Baldacci, “The Teacher”by Freida McFadden, “Clive Cussler The Heist” by Jack DuBrul, “The Housemaid’s Secret” by Freida McFadden, and “The Summer We Started Over” by Nancy Thayer.
