This June, readers of all ages will dive into the ocean depths this summer as Stevens County Library presents “Oceans of Possibilities” during their Summer Literacy Program. Activities include StoryWalks, magic shows, ocean – related take-home crafts, fitness, art projects, science demonstrations, movie matinees, cookie decorating, Storytimes, concerts, reading, and more.

The 2022 Summer Reading Program is open to young people, infant through adult, with programs, prize drawings, storytimes, a walking club, and more. Families are invited to join the reading portion of the program to prevent the “summer slide” in reading ability. Reading can be tracked on paper forms or using the READsquared app, found in your app store. Online registration and a full calendar of events can be found at www.steven scountylibrary.com/slp. Registration for “Oceans of Possibilities” is open!

For more information, call the library at 620-544-2301, stop by, or visit our website, www.stevenscountylibrary.com. All programs are free of charge.

The traditional tossing of caps and confetti after the conclusion of the graduation ceremony is a time honored highlight of the celebration of new beginnings.
