Are you ready to ROCK this summer? Children up to 12 years old can join our Libraries ROCK! Summer Reading Program, now through July 31st at any Lafayette Public Library location. They can participate in any of the multiple free programs like storytelling, puppetry, crafts, dance, drawing, plays, bubbles, music, and more. There will be one level of prizes, based on reading minutes and challenges. Pick up a reading log from the library or log online at LafayettePublicLibrary.org.
