Summer Library Program Starts June 6

We will kick off our free, annual Summer Library Program on June 6, offering a summer full of programs and activities for all ages at our 30 branch libraries, the community bookmobile, and online.

Everyone is invited to experience the magic of books and reading, to engage in creative expression, and to connect with others through fun community centered activities. This year’s program, Level Up at Your Library, offers captivating storytelling and engaging hands-on workshops as well as interactive games and activities.

Visit a local local library, the Bookmobile or www.ncwlibraries.org/slp to register and embark on a journey of exploration, unleash creativity, and play through exciting activities. The goal of the Summer Library Program is to offer community connections and fun ways for everyone to discover all that the library offers.

Participants who register at an NCW Libraries’ location will receive print materials including an activity pack for children and teens and a book bingo card for adults. Participants can earn small prizes and raffle tickets for larger prizes by completing the activities.

Participants who register online can engage in all the same activities on the Beanstack website or app. Beanstack is a fun and interactive digital platform for community reading challenges. The online Summer Library Program mirrors the print activity packs with virtual reading and activity challenges for all ages. Online participants can earn digital badges and raffle tickets for prize drawings.

You can find summer reading suggestions, download activity packs for kids and teens and the adult bingo card, view the calendar of events for the summer, and more at www.ncwlibraries.org/slp.

Each NCW Libraries community library location will offer their own schedule of summer events such as music, art, crafts, STEM activities, special story times, music and more. Some of the programs include folkloric dance lessons at the Peshastin Library, a Percy Jackson birthday party at the Wenatchee Library, HAM radio at the Winthrop Library, weekly story time with a therapy dog at the East Wenatchee Library, and additional community stops by our Bookmobile.
