Imagine your story this summer and earn prizes for reading. Join a quest deep into fairytales, fantasy, magic, and far off lands at the Cardington-Lincoln Public Library.
The journey begins June 15. All ages are welcome.
Students can earn prizes weekly for meeting reading goals. The more weeks you participate, the greater your chance to win one of the grand prizes. Finish all five weeks of the program and earn an invitation to a pool party.
Every Tuesday at 11 a.m. beginning June 16, hop on ZOOM for live instruction on how to make the weekly craft. Make a magic wand, potions, a shield, dragon eggs, and learn to weave. Prepackaged craft kits are available for pick up at the library.
Enjoy great educational entertainment every Wednesday at 11 a.m. beginning June 17. The first three programs will be on ZOOM: Mastersons Magic Show, Science Story Tellers, and Didgeridoo Down Under.

A special treat will be found on Facebook Live at 11 a.m. every Thursday beginning June 18 when talented Cardington teachers will perform fairy tale readings.
