Summer Stuff

Teens, what are your goals for summer?

My summer goals were always to have the best summer ever. Back in the old days, when I had summer vacation, I always had all kinds of plans and designs for how this summer would be the best summer. And most summers were pretty good. But the summers that were the best were the summers where I had definite plans about how the summer would be the best: I was going to hang out with my friends at least 3 times a week, I had saved money the whole year for fun activities, I did research on what the best books would be to read.

Now, I am a librarian so I am biased, about how great the library is, but fact of the matter is that we have done all the planning for you. There are summer activities at the library. We have provided the supplies and snacks for the activities.You can bring your friends and have fun. We have done the research and know what books you might like.  There is no planning required on your part (aside from transportation to and from the library).

I don't want to burst the fun bubble, but studies have shown that students participating in a summer reading program have an easier time when school starts up in the fall. Likewise, studies have shown that people who make plans and goals are more successful people and are more likely to follow through.

Summer Reading starts June 7th. Sign up for our programs. Come in and have fun.
