BC Summer Reading Club Returns to CRD Libraries

Courtesy of the Cariboo Regional District:

The Cariboo Regional District Libraries in 100 Mile House, Quesnel, and Williams Lake invite children of all ages to join this year’s BC Summer Reading Club: Build It! The program starts in July and registration is free.

Once registered, members will receive a special kit to keep track of their reading over the summer months. If they achieve their summer reading goal, they will be awarded a collectible medal.

Children can sign up to attend one free session per week. Each week they will be participating in a variety of fun activities, crafts, and story-times based on the theme Build it. Weekly themes include Build the Future, Build your Story, Build it Yourself and more!

The program is designed to motivate children to read regularly (or be read to), to help maintain or improve reading skills while school is out. It makes reading fun by inviting kids to read what they want. The Cariboo Regional District Library staff can help children find suitable materials, whether it’s a print book, audiobook, e-book, magazine or any combination of items. The Summer Reading Club will conclude with a celebration party for all participants.
