SUMMER READING PROGRAM
KICK-OFF EVENT
TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 2011, 4:30-8:00 P.M.
If you are searching for ways to get your children
enthused about reading this summer, be sure to attend the Summer
Reading Program Kick-Off Event at Prince Memorial Library. During
this 3 1/2 hr. event, children will experience activities and see
presentations that center around the theme of ONE WORLD, MANY
STORIES. They may watch a juggler, hear a professional
storyteller, learn some French, meet Slugger the Sea Dog, witness a
Spanish/English readers theater, discover the international Heifer
Program, make country flags, watch a step dancing presentation, take
part in an African activity or get their faces painted. This is
a drop in activity; families are welcome to come anytime.
Registration for the Summer Reading Program will begin
during the Kick-Off Event and will continue through June.

COMMUNITY STARGAZING EVENT
The spring sky is filled with familiar constellations and
some spectacular deep sky objects. Unfortunately, most people
do not know the rich background associated with the spring
constellations. A group of Greely High School seniors are
holding a community stargazing night at Twin Brook at 8:00 p.m. on
the 3rd of June for anyone who wishes to discover more about the
constellations and deep sky objects (Nebula, Globular clusters, and
Galaxies). There will be telescopes available and many
opportunities to engage with the students in discussion of the sky
and spring constellations. This is an event for all ages and
families are highly encouraged to attend.
