Fiesta en la Biblioteca To celebrate another great year of summer reading, the Library is hosting an afternoon fiesta. Join us for crafts, cake, and piñata fun! |
Children are strongly encouraged to participate in the portion of this program that encourages students to keep reading, writing, and using their math skills during their summer vacation. Children who spend time learning record these hours, and at the end of the program they are allowed to choose a prize. The more time they spent learning the bigger the prize!
Adults and teens are invited to join in on the fun. Teens record their time spent learning on a ticket. These tickets are turned into the Library once a week for a chance to win a prize bag. Adults can turn in tickets for the weekly drawing depending on what library material they borrowed during their last visit.
