“With Viroqua Area Schools dismissing the first week of June we wanted to give local youth the tools they need to keep reading this summer” said Youth Services Director Emilia Jury. “Besides launching our Summer Program on May 31 we’re also hosting a Stories & Service: Armed Forces Day Read-Aloud between 10:00am-12:00pm.
Eight Army personnel will be in the library taking turns reading picture books in 15-miniutes sessions for children and families. This is an opportunity to honor the service of local individuals while fostering a love of reading among young listeners.
