Ah, dear blog readers, you are the lucky ones.\u00c2\u00a0 You are about to receive a sneak preview of the summer program; details which won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be officially revealed until June…<\/p>\n
Almost all of the following are confirmed and official (just waiting on a final call-back from the Museum of Science):<\/p>\n
Massachusetts Audubon, Audubon Ark program:\u00c2\u00a0 \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Birds of Prey”<\/p>\n
I\u00c2\u00a0was given a choice of several birds of prey to come visit, and I chose a Red-Tail Hawk and a Great Horned Owl.\u00c2\u00a0 This program will be two thirty minute sessions, thirty children able to attend each session.\u00c2\u00a0 This is probably my favorite program of the summer, though it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really hard to choose.<\/p>\n
Museum of Science, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Night Sky\u00e2\u20ac\u009d program<\/p>\n
This program is way cool: they bring a large inflatable planetarium to the library, and groups of twenty-five are allowed in for an orientation of the constellations and basic astronomy.<\/p>\n
Professor Readalot, aka Greg McAdams, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Catch the Beat”<\/p>\n
I\u00c2\u00a0had to ask Greg back, since he was the single most popular program last summer.\u00c2\u00a0 This guy is amazing, and while he excels at what he does, I would love to see him teaching a classroom of kids.\u00c2\u00a0 He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s inspiring, enthusiastic, educational, and way funny.<\/p>\n
David Zucker, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Poetry in Motion”<\/p>\n
David brings an old steamer trunk with him, full of props, and in a one man show, introduces children to some of the great poets.\u00c2\u00a0 This program comes highly recommended, and I love the way it subtly fits the summer theme of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Catch the Beat at your library.”<\/p>\n
Ice Cream Social, featuring the band \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Colorblind\u00e2\u20ac\u009d playing children\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hits with a beat<\/p>\n
“Colorblind” has agreed to play at the Ice Cream Social, and they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be performing classic kids songs with a beat and a backbone.\u00c2\u00a0 Guaranteed that everyone will have a great time!!!
\nThen there will be several craft programs for children, craft programs for young adults, four movie nights for children, three movie nights for young adults, possibly a Heifer International program, a donation to Heifer International, great prizes, and hopefully a return visit from our favorite singer\/group leader for young children.\u00c2\u00a0 I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve probably left something out, since of course I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m writing this at home, but suffice it to say that this summer will be AWESOME!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
