Come join us at the library and check out this summer’s JUNGLE FUN programming. This year’s Summer Reading Club theme is DESTINATION
JUNGLE! Children and their families will be able to come into the library starting
on the first day of summer, June 21st, to sign up for this extremely popular programme. The club will be held throughout the summer and ends on August 20th.

All ages are welcome to join! Members will receive a poster, stickers and a magazine all free! The magazine is based on the Destination Jungle theme and contains games, activities and a reading log sheet. This is where children will record the number of books that they read throughout the summer. Young
ones who are not at the age to read will also be able to join as it is encouraged that an older sibling or parent can read to them! For every book read the reader will receive one ballot and the chance to enter them into our
bi-weekly prize draws that are held in each of the 4 King Township Library branches. The more books that are read the greater the chance of winning a prize!

The Libraries will also be hosting weekly club meetings. Children ages 6 and older will be able to attend. Please pre-register your children when signing up for the club, space is limited. The meetings are all on crazy jungle themes that the kids will love! Dates and times will be given to your child when the Children’s Librarian visits the schools in June!

The goal of this programme is to get children and their families excited about reading! The library prides itself on literacy based programming. All of our events encourage a love of reading by using fun and inventive concepts
for your children to enjoy.

A big THANK YOU to TD Canada Trust for the sponsorship of the posters, magazines and stickers.
