Summer Reading is here! At Limestone Township Library District, we are planning an excitement filled summer with our reading program called ‘Where the Adventure Begins.’
Our Kick-Off program is a Movie Day on Saturday,

with our movie “Lightyear.” Attendees can have fun making their own rocket to
sit in and create their own rocket packs. There will be hotdogs, popcorn, and pop
rocks to snack on. It’s sure to be a
blast!
Registration for Summer Reading is ongoing. Community members can register through June
20. Registration must be done in person. At that time, participants will
receive an information packet that includes a reading log, and the program calendar
for June and July. Every participant gets a raffle tickle for every on hundred
minutes read And for each program that they attend.

program that fits your child or yourself. We plan to have a busy summer making
crafts, visiting with people, exploring nature, and having a Medieval Faire on
