Summer Reading Program to focus on America 250 The summer reading program - Stars, Stripes, America 250 Years, has just gotten underway at Prairie Community Library. Kids can pick up their packets containing instructions, a gift bag and ticket to enter a prize drawing. The library is open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10-5:30 pm. Although much of the program is self-directed in earning stars to complete a flag project, some in-library special activities with guests will take place for patriotic sing-alongs, show-n-tell of military uniforms, and an American symbols maker day. Dates for these special events are tentatively slated for June 23, 30, July 21 and August 11. The summer reading program is free of charge for all kids from pre-school through middle grades and runs through August 11. The library is decorated in patriotic themes with loaned military uniforms on display for the month of July for all visitors to enjoy & honor the service of community members. If anyone has a uniform they would like to loan us we still could use more from any service branch. Partial uniforms, such as a hat, jacket, boots, patches, etc. is welcome. For more information visit or phone the library at 208 962-3714 or see us on facebook.com/prairiecommunitylibrary. |
