Hey Teens! What Are You Doing this Summer?

Why not become a VolunTeen?

Last summer, over 300 VolunTeens assisted with our Summer Reading Program, which encourages children to read while they are on vacation from school. This year the program will be offered from June 9–August 1.

Being a VolunTeen provides you with the opportunity to spend leisure time in a way that is helpful to others, develop work skills for future employment, and learn more about libraries.

The Library System offers this unique opportunity for young people ages 12-18. Registration begins May 1 on a first-come, first-served basis. After attending an orientation session, VolunTeens are assigned to assist staff members by registering children for the program and distributing program packets. They also help staff prepare craft materials and books for special programs. At the end of the program, VolunTeens are rewarded with a thank you party.
