The Bandana Babes entertain children at the sing-along event during last year's Library Summer Reading Program Once again, the Signal Mountain Library is joining with libraries across the country in the national collaborative Summer Reading Program. This year’s theme is “Build a Better World,” and the library hopes to do this by offering children not only good reading materials but also an opportunity to explore music, art, dance, and drama, as well as learn about and enjoy seeing animals.
Sign-ups for the summer reading program will begin on May 30 at 11 a.m. at the Library. All of the events will be held at the library, except for a trip next door to the Signal Mountain Playhouse and the final celebration at the swimming pool, to which your whole family is invited. The program is designed for children in elementary school, but younger or older siblings are welcome.
