Felicitations to our Summer Reading Club 2015 Winners!

The Summer Reading Club 2015 at Sergio Troncoso Branch Library started on Saturday, June 6 with a kick-off party. There was face painting, balloons, story telling and more..ZZ the Clown was there to entertain. What fun! Kids also designed their own mask because every superhero needs to keep his identity a secret! It's a bird, It's a plane! On June 10th SRC continued, kids learned about flying as they made their own planes. Teens also had their own set of  SRC programs. On June 25th they joined henna artist, Yoly Jon , in creating temporary henna tattoos. Very original! The SRC Wrap -Up party was held on  July 25th and featured The Amazing Adrian and his magic. The audience, young and old, enjoyed the show of illusions and fun. Announcement of the SRC winners was made and prizes were awarded.
