The Rostraver Public Library announces the following Summer Schedule of Events.

Reader’s Theater

Tweens looking for something different to do this summer are invited to join the Rostraver Public Library’s Reader’s Theater program. Titled “Mythic Madness,” the program is centered around Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson books and the Greek myths on which the books are based. The program will be held on Monday and Tuesday mornings over a two-week span in July and is open to students in grades 6 – 9.

According to Kelly Yoskosky, the program leader, Reader’s Theater is a production of script, like a play where vocalized emotions and emphasis creates the action. Those participating will work on reading with emphasis and vocal variety.

Everyone who enrolls in the program will receive a free copy of any of the Rick Riordan mythology books of their choosing, thanks to the sponsors of the program, the Michael J. & Aimee Rusinko Kakos Fund of The Community Foundation of Westmoreland County.

First meeting of the group is Monday, July 9 at 10:30 a.m. at the library. To participate in the program, please call the Rostraver Public Library at 724-379-5511.

“One Book, One Community” Program

The Rostraver Public Library is offering a “One Book, One Community” program, its first venture into this nationwide phenomenon of community. Patrons are invited to stop in the library to reserve a copy of Flight 93 by Tom McMillan to read before the group discussion on Thursday, August 6 at 7 p.m. at the library. The book discussion will be led by a moderator and the evening will include light refreshments.

The Westmoreland County Library system also has a bus trip planned to the site for early autumn, but only those who have participated in a “One Book” discussion group will be eligible to go on the bus trip.

To reserve a copy of the book, please call the Rostraver Public Library at 724-379-5511.
