Summer
Library Program
Updated:
May 21, 2008
The theme for the 2008 summer library program
is "Catch the Reading Bug!" The theme for the 2008 teen and adult library program is "Metamorphosis!"
CHILDREN'S PROGRAM
The program for children ages 3 through 5th grade
will offer reading opportunities, entertainment and weekly prizes for
successful reading throughout the six weeks of the program. It is necessary
to have a minimum age of 3 for a child's participation because of safety
concerns with the prizes chosen. Some may have small parts or in other
ways be a possible danger to younger children, so the library cannot allow
younger children to participate. Parents are urged to decide if a selected
prize is suitable for their child or children of any age as the library
cannot be responsible for how a child uses the toy. All public and parochial
elementary and middle schools in the Kimberly and Little Chute schools
districts will have brochures delivered for each student in May. Homeschoolers or parents of homeschoolers may pick up
registration materials during the month of May. Online
registration [available May 1st] as well as in-person registration will begin May 1 and continue through the summer. If registering online, be sure to use the kid's & teen's form. Packets of materials
may be picked up at the the library for which you registered beginning May 1.
TEEN
PROGRAM
The teen program is open to young people entering 6th grade through 12th
grade. Teens may register either Online
[available May 1st]or in person beginning May 1 and packets of matrials may be picked up beginning May 1. If registering online, be sure to use the kid's & teen's form. The teen program will offer
various prizes geared to that age group to reward successful reading.
Drawings for additional prizes will be done at the end of the summer library
program in July.
ADULT
PROGRAM
The adult program is open to people age 18 and over. Drawings for a variety
of prizes will be done at the completion of the program. Participants
