Sitka Public Library invites children entering second grade and third grade this fall to register to participate in the annual Summer Reading Buddy program. Buddies meet up for one hour each week at the library to read. Children can win incentives every hour of reading, and they receive the official Summer Reading program t-shirt, and other library swag. The program runs from June 6 to August 8 with time off for vacation. Please note that acceptance into the program depends on the number of adult volunteers available, and submission of the application does not guarantee the child’s acceptance. Registered children will be notified at the end of May.
Those interested, please fill out an application at Sitka Public Library or e-mail Maite at maite.lorente@cityofsitka.org for more information. Applications are due May 16.
