It’s all about the waves!
“Oceans of Possibilities” is the theme for the 2022 Justin Potter and Alexandria Libraries Summer Reading Program and children of all ages are invited to participate June 2-23 at 2 p.m. each Thursday at the DeKalb County Complex Theatre Room. All events for both libraries will be at that location.
Mr. Bond’s Science Guys will be at the opening party to kick off the fun-filled summer by teaching kids about waves including waves of the ocean, sound waves, and even light waves. Discover how scientists use the ocean to create energy, laugh out loud when they change the waves of your voice, and be amazed at the destructive power of concentrated light waves.
Children can begin registering for Summer Reading at both libraries on May 23rd. Each child that registers and meets their goal will receive a participation certificate and other goodies at the end of the Summer Reading Program.
