Central Valley — Summer started at the Woodbury Public Library at the annual Kids’ Day on June 17. Crafts, prizes, refreshments and a special visit from Shrek kicked off the summer fun. This was also the first chance to register for the Summer Reading Program. Registration continues through July 30 at the Central Valley Branch and can be done in person at any time the library is open. “One World, Many Stories” is the theme of the New York State Summer Reading Program this summer. Children are invited to join the Individual Reading Program and keep track of their reading over the summer with stickers and receive weekly prizes. One World Activity programs for grades K to 1 and grades 2 to 5 will be held weekly. The opening program will be held outside at the Central Valley Branch on July 7 at 7 p.m. The Page Turners will perform an interactive show, “The Great Pizza Contest.” Call 928-2114 to sign up for this program. Storytimes for ages 2 to 5, a parent-child program for ages 6 to 36 months called “Little Library Travelers” and other programs will be offered during the summer. Stop in at either branch of the library to pick up information. Those going into grades 6 to 9 are offered the “You Are Here” challenge. Reading, activity programs, puzzles and projects can all earn miles used for chances on three raffles. Come in to the Central Valley Branch to get information and sign up for a summer of fun.
