Summer Library Program

Welcome to our 2022 Summer Library Program!  Join us for crafts, games, snacks, and presentations by local educational institutions.  All events are family-friendly, though our Stories, Games, and Crafts days are geared toward ages 5-12.  Younger kids can join us for Toddle Time and older kids can stop by our teen events or volunteer!    

Our schedule this summer is:
1st- Stories, Games, & Crafts
8th- Stories, Games, & Crafts
15th- O'Brien County Naturalist 
22nd- Sanford Museum & Planetarium
29th- Stories, Games, & Crafts


Our Summer Reading Program will run from May 30- July 24.  A prize drawing will be held at the end of the program for participants.  

We are always looking for reliable, responsible volunteers to help our programs run smoothly.  Anyone entering 7th grade or older (including adults) is welcome to help, so stop by and talk to Sarah if you are interested.

For more information, contact the library by phone, email, or stop by.  We would love to chat with you and answer any questions.

Toddle Time
Jun 1, 2022, 10:45 AM – 11:15 AM

Kids age 1-4 and their caregivers are invited to join us for stories and crafts!  This program takes place while the big kids are doing their activities and gives little ones and their caregivers a chance to focus on early literacy skills and fun.  

We will read books, sing songs, play games, do fingerplay, make simple crafts, etc. 

Please note that caregivers (parents, babysitters, etc.) are expected to remain with children during our Toddle Time program.  No unaccompanied child is allowed to attend but one adult may supervise several children if needed.  

If your child is 4 but has been attending preschool and would rather do crafts with the big kids, they are welcome to do so.  We expect anyone with the big kids to be able to work fairly independently, with some assistance from volunteers.  Parents who wish to stay with children in the big kid group are welcome but not required.
