Summer Reading Program Events at the Library ~ 6/12 - 8/12 - Just Looking?
Youth of all ages are invited to travel the world of imagination during the 2011 Summer Reading Program which runs from June 12 to August 21. "One World, Many Stories" is the theme for youth up to 12 years of age. "You Are Here" is for teens.
All aspects of the program are free including prizes, certificates, story time, craft programs, parties and events. To kickoff the program, Mr. Dave Twister, balloon artist extraordinaire, will perform at each of the Ventura County Library branches during late May and the month of June. The calendar of shows and events is at www.vencolibrary.org and flyers are available at each library circulation desk.
Youth are encouraged to keep track of the time they spend reading, or being read to by someone else. After reading 15 hours, they receive a prize and a certificate of achievement. Teens are also welcome to volunteer to help run the programs. Volunteer credit may qualify for community service hours at their schools. More info, Lori Karns 677-7156 or your local Ventura County Library branch.
