Get ready to build! Tuesday, August 1, from 10:00am-12:00pm, kids and teens are invited to express themselves by creating a structure using Keva Planks, Strawbees, and Lego building blocks. All materials to create will be provided. The program is intended to be an open, free build STEM activity utilizing the library’s collection of building materials. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. The program is part of the Coos Bay Public Library’s annual Summer Reading Program. During the summer, the Library offers both a reading challenge and programming for all ages which encourage people to read, learn, connect and find their voice. Beginning June 19 and continuing through August 19, participants of any age can participate in the summer reading bingo challenge, earning badges and entry into prize drawings. Participants who register will get a special prize for entering. This year, people can participate either online or using a paper bingo sheet. Challenge registration is available on the Library’s website or at the Coos Bay Public Library.
