Learn about waves, draw fantastical sea creatures, dance the Swim and Make a Splash - READ! when you join the library’s summer reading program! Reading charts will be available beginning June 1 in the library. All reading and listening time must be reported to the library by August 7.

Winners will be announced at our final programs on August 10 and 12.
