SCRL Summertime Fun Slides into 2024 School Year

Drawing of a stack of books

By Kelly Johnson

It’s a Thursday, a comfortable eighty-three degrees on a bench under a tree’s shade, listening to the Fresh Prince’s Summertime. The imagination flows, having reviewed the July’s event schedule for South Cobb Regional Library (SCRL). Summer memories shall be on hand before a new school year begins on August 1.

With July however, the staple of activities for young and old alike, such as Lego Build, the super event Hooks & Books, and All Ages Recycled Art Program, promise to embody vestiges with fond memories of how one’s handiwork came into existence; or impress thoughtful reflections on Speed Friending at the library. Such experiences will certainly answer the question, “What did you do this summer?” at the start of the school year.

In addition to SCRL’s Summer Food Service, these are other scheduled activities worth noting, or sharing in an essay for one’s English teacher:

  • Family VR Fun, July 2nd, Tuesday at 10:30 AM (For kids 7-18. Older adults must be in company of a kid.)
  • Camp Half-Blood, July 12th, Friday at 2:00 PM (For kids 7-13 and registration required.)
  • Windchime Workshop, July 20th, Saturday at 2:00 PM (Requires registration.)
  • Library Olympics, July 25th, Thursday at 10:30 AM (For families.)
  • Friendship Braclet, July 30th, Tuesday at 2:00 PM (For kids 8-12.)

Please also note that the South Cobb Regional Library will be closed for Independence Day on July 4th. (This date falls on the first Thursday of the month.)

As always, check out that book and get your creativity on. Your brain will thank you.
