Edmunds County Tribune -

The Marcus P Beebe Memorial Library 2023 Summer Reading program “All Together Now” begins in June.

In collaboration with the Art Show, all children can pick up a puzzle piece to decorate and then return it. The puzzle will be assembled into a large work of art to be on display for the summer.

Be sure to stop in June 29 to July 11, during library hours, to help build a friendship/kindness paper chain.

The summer reading program is free and open to children, birth to 12. If you cannot attend the weekly program you can get a “Take-Home” kit on the dates marked with an asterisk.

Call the library with any questions at 605-426-6707. There is no pre-registration required.
