Windsor Public Library Summer Reading Program
Windsor Public Library is once again offering a full summer of fun and activities planned for children – and they are all free of charge! The fun officially kicked off on Saturday, July 8, 2023 at the Chisholm Branch of Windsor Public Library (1075 Ypres) with games, crafts, face painting, cake and more to get children excited to read all summer long.
The theme this year is “Read, Learn and Discover with Windsor Public Library” and runs until August 19, 2023.
Kids of all ages will get the chance to explore stories and activities that encourage them to discover what’s in their own back yard – and beyond. From Candy Olympics to Un-BEE-lievable Fun to Galaxy Voyageurs galore, there is something for everyone. Summer programs run throughout July and August at all WPL locations.
Parents and children are reminded to drop in to any neighbourhood Windsor Public Library location and pick up a SRP Package, including Bingo Cards for kids, teens and adults and a Reading Tracking Log any time after July 10. Those attending the kickoff on July 8 can get theirs then. This year children who participate are able to collect Brag Tags and win prizes throughout the summer. WPL strives to inspire children to keep reading all summer long through regular visits to their public libraries.
The Windsor Public Library Board and staff believe in the freedom to read, learn and discover. The WPL enriches the community by providing access to resources that inform, entertain and enlighten. Close to 42 percent of the community – 95,886 – have active library cards and over 1,155,668 items were checked out from WPL in 2022.
