7pm to 9pm
We are excited to have been invited to join the Haliburton Arts Council Read and Writes

Sub-Committee’s Bookapalooza community event as a partner and, in doing so, we will provide a meaningful and fun component designed for children and families. Our Reading Action Program Committee will take the lead and our participation will include:

• A Haliburton and District Lions Club Booth highlighting our club and our Reading Action Program

• We will read stories to children and their families

• Meet The Author sessions where children will get to meet an author of children's books and be read to by the author

• New free books for every child. This will include the books by authors who do our Meet the Author sessions.

• Literacy brochures for parents. These were created by early literacy author and renowned expert Jim Trelease and for which we, of course, have permission to print and distribute.

• Additional activities will include children’s books for sale by locally owned Masters Books Store and the Haliburton County Library will set up a table where children can sign up for a library card.

Bookapalooza will be a most worthwhile endeavour that is sure to build community, enhance literacy learning and promote a love of reading and writing for all.
