All Together Now Join the Summer @ Your Library Reading Quest. Image of Sneaks the Cat with Rainbow glasses playing guitar.

 

Summer @ Your Library 2024

This annual initiative promotes connection and learning by encouraging everyone to read or get active during summer. From June 1-August 31, kids and adults can play games and attend events to win fabulous prizes along the way.

Kids can participate in the Summer Quest and help our friend, Sneaks travel down the trail to find his campsite.

Adults can partake in the “Wild Card Bingo” challenge and get entered into a chance to win four (4) airline tickets courtesy of Southwest Airlines just by using their library.

Join AACPL on the adventure this year and spend Summer @ Your Library!

Did you attend a S@YL program? We'd love your feedback.
