Summer Reading Events

Have you heard of the “summer slide”? In education, this is the term for the tendency for kids to lose critical reading skills over their summer break.
The good news? Slowing down that summer slide is what the Kalkaska Library’s Summer Reading programming is all about.
Participate in challenges, earn prizes, and make visiting the library a regular part of your child’s summer fun!

In addition to engaging and educational challenged designed to keep improving your child’s reading skills over the summer,
we also host a range of fun and exciting family-friendly events throughout June and July to encourage connection and community.
From musical performances to juggling and magic, and from puppetry to guided nature visits, celebrate Summer in style!

Summer Reading 2025 Information: Coming Soon!

Events are FREE, and all are welcome. We hope to see you there!
