- Fizz Boom Read! (children’s program)
Kids… You can get their summer reading done while having lots of fun! SEE magicians, storytellers, puppeteers, artists, dancers, musicians, and poets; WIN prizes, including free admission to exciting places; TALK about your favorite books; and, MEET other kids. - Spark a Reaction (teen program)
Teens … Discover great books for their summer nights (and days). Check in at your local library to find out about great workshops … watercolor painting, cartooning, improv, crafting, animation, poetry, and magic. - Literary Elements (adult program)
The adult summer reading program is designed to encourage adults to read during the summer months while creating positive publicity for the library. Over the summer, adults can explore new genres or interests which gives the library the opportunity to highlight books of interest. The adult summer reading program also offers an excellent model of lifelong learning and reading to the children participating in their own summer reading programs.
