The Lake Andes Public Library had a fun summer of activities held for local children. As the summer reading program is coming to a close, here is a recap of some of those fun activities that Librarian, Mary Jo Parker, with the help of her programming assistants, Marlene Janis, Madelyn Janis, Madeline Derry and Katelyn Dvorak engaged the children of Lake Andes with. The theme for this summer’s reading program was Adventure Begins at Your Library and that is exactly what Mary Jo planned for the children that attended, lots of library adventures. Some of the fun projects that the library offered this summer included building a fairy house and garden, string art projects, diamond art, the Virtual 2024 Dam 5K and perler bead creations. One of the final projects before the end of summer reading program incentive trip to Yankton is a Build A Bear project for those that attended the summer programing. Congratulations to all those that participated and enjoyed time at the Lake Andes Public Library this summer.
