Teens 12-18 are invited to a special “after hours” event at the Coos Bay Public Library from 6:00-8:00pm, Friday, August 5. The event, planned by the Library’s Summer Youth Corps, will feature crafts, games (including a lightening game of Dungeons and Dragons), trivia, and the screening of a Quiet Place. Pizza will be provided. Participants must arrive by 6:15pm to participate. The event is being offered as 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 explore the outdoors. Beginning June 20 and continuing through August 6, participants can enroll in the challenge earn badges, rewards, and a chance to win a grand prize. This year, people can participate either online or using a paper tracking form. Challenge registration is available on the Library’s website or at the Coos Bay Public Library.
