It's summer in Jackson

Hello Jackson!


We have been super busy planning activities for our Summer Reading Program and are excited to see lots of families over the next few months.


We have story times on Tuesday mornings at 11am with Ms. Meredith. Those run through July 26. 


Events for older kids (5 +) are Tuesday afternoons at 3:30pm on a variety of topics. Don't miss our kickoff event with the return of Cody Wells. lego extraordinaire, on 7/5 - registration requested


Adult programs courtesy of the Friends of the Library include a Cook Book Club on 7/23 at 4:30pm. Copies are available now of Local flavors: cooking and eating from America's farmers' markets by Deborah Madision. Pick one up and prepare a dish to share with friends and neighbors on 7/23. On 8/6 the Friends will host an outdoor family movie at 8pm night featuring Whale Rider. We are working on a few other surprises too - watch this space for more! 


In addition to events, we are trying to have a lot to get excited about whenever you drop by. We have decorated the building with an under-the-water theme, we have new books on the story book trail. On Wednesdays in July, we will have a new take-and-make craft bag for you to do right away or bring home to work on with family - grab it any time during the week.  


Following the success of last year's book bingo, we brought it back again. Complete a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line and bring it in to us and we'll give you a raffle ticket to win one of our super prizes. Those include STEM kits, stuffies, a photo of Jackson Bridge, gorgeous earrings made by Laura Guptill, a gift certificate to White Birch Books and more. The drawing will be on August 23. 


And finally, it simply would not be summer with the ritual surrender of our reading logs in exchange for prizes donated by some generous area businesses like J-Town Deli, Dairy Queen in Glen, Story Land, and more! Turn in your log by July 26 and pick up your prizes on July 27 & 28th. That leaves all of August to enjoy them.
