Over the Spring Break, the Tehachapi Branch of the Kern County Library put on the Spring Break Mini Reading Program. Children from preschool to 8th grade were encouraged to reading 5 books between March 18 to April 5 to earn a free ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery. The program was a great success with 233 participants taking home a reading record and 145 completing the record and receiving a coupon for their ice cream.
Thank you to Cold Stone Creamery for offering such a great prize for reading. The library staff appreciates all their efforts to make this mini reading program a success. Thank you to the Friends of the Tehachapi Library for sponsoring Jeff Lee from Steve Martin’s Working Wildlife for a great program during Spring Break.
This summer all Tehachapi school aged readers can look forward to the Catch The Reading Bug @ the Library Summer Reading Program. During the summer program children who read 10 books receive a free paperback book. There will be a great line of programs too.
For more information about programs at the Tehachapi Branch of the Kern County Library call 822-4938 or visit the library in the Tehachapi Crossing Shopping Center in between Hodad’s and the Bottoms Up Tanning Salon.
