The public is invited to drive thru from 9-11 a.m. Saturday to enjoy Kona Ice, balloon animals, a scavenger hunt and free summer reading bags (while supplies last).

The Summer Reading Program runs from June 5 to July 31 and includes virtual programs, take-and-makes, prize drawings for all ages and a special newsletter.

Readers who complete activity cards are qualified to enter into any of the library’s grand-prize basket drawings. Categories include gaming, outdoor family fun, reader, and restaurants. Multiple entries are encouraged. Winners will be announced Aug. 2.
