2025 Summer Reading Kickoff!

Drop in any time between 4:30-6:30 PM at Charles Gabus Tree Park (directly South of the Library) to pick up your Summer Reading Log, find out more about our exciting summer programs for youth and families, and kick Summer off right!

Back by popular demand, we’ll have Absolute Science’s foam blaster and giant bubble wands, cool crafts, and even a free snow cone and popcorn from the Urbandale Lions Club! Plus, don’t miss photo-ops with Avengers of the Knight Superheroes and real-life superhero Urbandale Police Officer Collin Ten Haken! It’s all free summer fun for the whole family.

Registration for the kickoff is encouraged to help us plan, but not required. (Fun tip: Registering allows you to opt in to get an email reminder the day before the event.)
