All Milford Memorial Library Summer Reading Logs are due on Friday, August 4.
Milford Memorial Library: Youth Corner
It is sad to say, but this is Milford Memorial Library’s last full week of summer reading. The first program is with the local libraries at 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 12, at the Pearson Lakes Art Center. We will be hosting the cartoonist, Tim Read, and his Silly Library Monsters program.
The second program is Building Bookworms at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, July 13, with Miss Becca at the library. This storytime will celebrate the kids with the craft being an express yourself poster.
The entire summer program will wrap up with an End Celebration from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, July 16. Don’t forget to bring your library ticket! The deadline for Bouncelandia is Friday, July 14, and all other prizes (without Bouncelandia) can be earned until Friday, August 4.
Also, a quick side note to keep in mind is that Miss Becca will have another summer of ‘Read with Miss Becca’ from August 1-18. These are casual times where the kiddos can read and practice their literacy skills before school starts in the following weeks. Please email or call for more information or to set up any days/times ([email protected] or 712-338-4643)
