The theme for 2025 is Level Up at Your Library! This summer, teens and adults can level up with a variety of fun programs, including crafting, a gaming truck, a Dungeons & Dragons class, anime club, a murder mystery night and more! We also have reading logs available to earn prizes and grand prize entries just for reading during the month of June! Adults will be able to play "Library-opoly" and collect colored sets around a themed board, while teens are able to "Level Up" with a Dungeons and Dragons themed reading tracker. Please register online using the link above. Materials can be picked up in the Main Library starting May 24th, or you can have them emailed to you to print at home. |
