Linking Lives Through Reading, a multi-generational, one-on-one reading program for first and second graders is a long standing Old Forge Library program supported by the Leola Tobin Memorial Fund. This year there will be four winter sessions held on Thursdays, January 11th-February 1st from 2:15 - 3:15 pm.
Each child is paired with a Book Buddy, an adult volunteer from the community, for an hour of reading, enjoyable learning activities and a snack. It is designed to be fun for kids with coloring, reading rewards and reading with a partner. Town of Webb Schools will provide transportation to the library after school to their students. Parents or caregivers will pick up their child at 3:15 pm.
Call the library at 315 369-6008 or e-mail (oldforge@midyork.org) to register a child or to volunteer as an Adult Book Buddy. Adult volunteers are always needed.
