Program Description

Summer Reading Activities

Summer Reading Activities are "extras" - programs, presentations, and special events hosted by the library - designed to complement the reading goals of our annual summer reading challenges.  Participating in these special programs earns additional badges in Beanstack and additional tickets for the ticket drawing prizes!

For Secret Code Word activities, be sure to look for the sign with the secret code word or ask a library staff member during the program!


Meet Tiger!

Tiger is our Summer Reading Activity mascot!  Any time you see Tiger on something advertising a Read, Renew, Repeat event or program, it means that event will give you additional badges and tickets!  

A cartoon tiger is standing on his hind legs.  He is wearing a t-shirt and a ball cap and holding a shovel.

 

 

Event Details

With habitat loss effecting so many species negatively, it’s becoming more important than ever to consider providing sanctuary to some of the local wildlife in your neighborhood, and it’s easier than you may think! Join one of our animal keepers and 5 of our educational ambassadors as we go over what each of our animals need to thrive in their ecosystem, and tell you how you can make your backyard or garden a Certified Wildlife Habitat through the National Wildlife Federation.
