Russell County Public Library will kick-off Summer Reading 2021 on June 15th with a Scavenger Hunt at the Main Library in Lebanon, Virginia. Since last year’s Summer Reading had to go all-virtual because of Covid-19, we are super excited to welcome you back for a summer full of fun things to do at your library.
The benefits to readers in a summer reading program include:
- Encouragement so that reading becomes a lifelong habit
- Reluctant readers can be drawn in by the activities
- Reading over the summer helps children keep their skills up
- The program can generate interest in the library and books
During our summer reading program, not only will you and your child be defeating the summer slide of learning loss, but you will also have the opportunity of so much family fun. We will kick-off Summer Reading at both branches with the Tails and Tales Scavenger Hunt where your child can win prizes and books, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. We will have Summer Story Time at both branches every Wednesday for six weeks starting June 16th. Pre-school, elementary and middle schoolers, teens, and adults will all be welcomed to multiple programs. The library will have something for everyone. Come check us out for a summer of fun.
