The West Newton Public Library announces the following Summer news and events.

Summer Reading Program

The West Newton Library would like to announce this year’s take on the old Summer Reading Program. This year we will feature a week-long event focusing on nutrition, exercise, and reading. This event will run from July 20th to 25th starting daily at 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The event will be held at the West Newton Lion's Field House and Pavilion, located at 511 Pittsburgh St. The program is free of charge and is open to children from K - 6. Space is limited to the first 50 children.

This year the children will be involved in preparing healthy choices, analyzing group results, reviewing fractions, and measuring out ingredients. They will learn the impact of exercise and, of course, we will be featuring a new story every day. Each child will receive a workbook from the "Jump with Jill" exercise & fitness rocks program. Lunch will be provided each day.

 The week-long event will wind up on Saturday, July 25 with our awards ceremony at Simeral Square, during the annual Health and Wellness Fair at the park. Please contact the library at 724-972-3229 to reserve your spot, which will be done with your completion of our registration form. This year’s program is brought to you by a grant from the Kakos Foundation.
