1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is a program encouraging you to read 1,000 books with your child before they start kindergarten. The program is self-paced and you decide how often and how long you will read to your child. It can take anywhere from a few months to a few years. When you register for the program, you can come pick up a welcome packet, including a finger puppet and physical reading logs to color in! There will also be occasional surprises throughout the game, like stickers, a halfway-there certificate, and more (you can even earn a happy dance with a librarian)! When you finish the program, you’ll receive a graduation certificate, an invite to a quarterly themed storytime, a free book, and a farm friend adoption kit (just a stuffie, not a real one). Sign up online.

Are you a seasoned Minecraft pro looking for new ways to play? Never played but want to learn with other kids in your community? Join our private Minecraft Server! We'll get together online once a month to explore, build, dodge creepers, and fight zombies! If you don't have your own Minecraft account, you can borrow one from the Library. We will have a Zoom meeting set up concurrently with the Minecraft server so you can chat and ask questions while playing with a new group of friends! Ages 7–12.
Please register to receive a welcome email with additional information and a username/password, IP address, and more to access the Library's Minecraft Server the day of the program.
