“Paws, Claws, Scales, and Tales,” the Summer Reading Club at the Sierra Madre Public Library, will start Monday, June 19 and run eight weeks through Saturday, August 12.
Children of all ages from all communities are invited to join in these free activities. Sign-ups will be in the Library’s Children’s Room starting June 19.
There is a division for non-readers and a division for school-aged readers entering grades 1 through 6. Learners entering grades 2 through 6 are encouraged to join the more rigorous “Challenger’s Division.” Students in grades 7 and up can join “Creature Feature @ Your Library!”
All participants will receive prizes during the summer and a certificate of completion at the conclusion of the program. Books do not have to be library books but should be age-appropriate.
Volunteers going into grades 7 and up are needed to help with the Summer Reading Club. This is an opportunity to earn community service points, work on a scouting badge, make new friends, bust summer boredom and learn about the Library. Applications are available now at the Library.
The Friends of the Sierra Madre Library sponsor the Summer Reading Club, and the Sierra Madre Kiwanis Club sponsors the Challenger’s Division.
The Sierra Madre Public Library is located at 440 West Sierra Madre Boulevard in Sierra Madre. For further information on this program and other Library programs and services please visit the Library’s web site at www.sierramadre.lib.ca.us or call (626) 355-7186.
