Program Description

Event Details

Drive though to register for summer reading, pick up your Colorama Kit,  meet our colorful librarians, and get a yard sign (while supplies last) to support summer reading. You can also participate in no-screen activities, such as making chalk art on our 19th Street sidewalk, playing a yard game, and guessing how many beach balls we've packed into the library car. Drop your guess off in the bucket, and we'll pull a winner after the event!  KONA Ice will sell frozen treats from 4:00 to 6:00 pm, with a portion of proceeds going back to the library. 

Due to space, most of our colorful fun will be at our Downtown Library, but you can also pick up your kit and enjoy a yard game at our Southwest Library.
