Orange Beach library has successful June programs

ORANGE BEACH, Ala. — The month of June has been busy and fun at Orange Beach Public Library. We have been celebrating summer reading each week.

The Youth reading theme is “Dig into Reading” and the teen theme is “Beneath the Surface”. On June 6 our Kick-Off program was presented by Flow Circus. Paul Miller entertained the elementary students with a comedy juggling and magic show. The teens enjoyed his hands-on juggling workshop.

On June 13, we welcomed Charlie Williams, The Noise Guy, to bring his sound impressions with storytelling back for another hilarious program called Eat My Dust! That same day, the teens learned some basic Hip-Hop moves from Nick Stanton of Triple Threat Studios. Our June 20, 2013 program was presented by singer – songwriter Monty Harper. The teens made and ate a no-bake dirt cake; worms included.

Mark Seymour presented our final June program with percussion extravaganza for the youth and teens.

We will continue special programing through July, so there are still opportunities for your family to enjoy visiting us. Remember to report your reading progress! If you turn in your reading progress you can be a part of the Grand Finale Award Ceremony where every reader will receive a certificate as well as a prize. Our community has done a good job of providing exciting prizes for our summer readers.

We look forward to seeing you on Thursday at 2 p.m. for the youth program and 3 p.m. for the teen program. All summer reading events are free!
