It is not too late to register for the Cass District Library summer reading program. In order to do so, residents can visit their local branch library to register.

The summer club is open to all ages and free to join. The Cass District Library is also having a T-shirt design contest this summer. Entries need to be original works of art and turned in by Saturday, July 21. The winning design will be featured on the library’s T-shirts that will be used as prizes for this year’s Summer Library Club. An entry form with all the rules can be picked up at the library.

There are many family friendly programs being offered in July as well. The programs are free to attend and some may require registration due to limited space availability. A wizard wands craft day will be offered. Participants will create their own wand! Registration is required, please call the branch you want to attend to sign-up. Kennedy’s Kitchen Irish Musicians will be performing at different library branches on Thursday, July 19. There will be a rock club to teach kids about rocks and minerals and a rock painting class taught by members of Cass Area Artists. People can stop into the library to pick up a calendar and include the library in their summer plans.
