School’s out and you know what that means. The annual Summer Reading Program has kicked off at the Library. This year’s theme is “Level Up at Your Library.” and we have a calendar full of things to keep kids, teens, and adults reading and entertained. The 2025 program runs from June 11 to August 2, wrapping up with a celebratory ice cream party at Capt. Bonney’s on August 9 (by invitation only). Online registration opened June 11 and any events, activities, or programs that require sign-ups because of space or age restrictions are now available for you to join. Stop by the Library anytime from June 11 forward to pick up a reading tracker log and activity sheets. Check the Events Calendar at plumblibrary.com for the full summer schedule. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.
June Summer Reading Program Events include Tuesdays with Teachers, Ms. Rhonda’s Indoor Band Jam, The History of Nintendo (interactive), Yoga for Adults with Ms. Marsha, and Make & Take Essential Oils Workshop for Adults. All of these events require registration and space is limited. Please sign up on the Events Calendar on our website, www.plumblibrary.com.
