Event

Booking with a Buddy

Thursday, August 4, 2022
5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
Kids Study Room 1

Kids entering grades 1-3 in the fall can be "little buddies," taking part in this literacy program that promotes reading during the summer. Space is limited.

Little buddy participants spend eight hours over four weeks (July 11-August 4) reading aloud and talking about books with teen big buddy volunteers, as well as playing literacy games and doing group activities. Space is limited, and the last day to register is Thursday, June 30 (or until registration is full). Little buddies are matched with big buddies and meet in small groups on Mondays and Thursdays.

Register for this event if you want the 5:30 pm time. Other times are 1:30 pm and 3:30 pm. Meeting times are available on a first-come, first-served basis for ten kids per session. Register only if you can attend at least six of the eight sessions. Once you register, you will receive more information about your session.

Although this program encourages reading, it is not a tutoring program and all big buddies are teen volunteers.

Please contact Mandy O’Brien if you have questions.

Online registration is closed.
