Summer Reading Kickoff with Bluey and Therapaws

Add color to your life with 2025's Summer Reading theme, Color Our World! Celebrate the start of Summer Reading by taking a picture with Bluey the dog! Bluey from E-Mazing Characters & Rentals will be coming, sponsored by the Friends of the Thomas Branigan Memorial Library! A special visit of therapy dogs from Therapaws is coming, where you can read to dogs and earn points for Summer Reading! There will be more fun to color your world with different community partner table activities.

Summer Reading starts on June 1, and runs through July 13. Prizes can be redeemed starting June 8, a week after it starts. Prizes can be collected through July 31.
