Summer 2023 is right around the corner! 

We're getting excited for this year's TD Summer Reading Club, which begins real soon! Put on your thinking caps and dive into all the curiosities of our world! We are also thrilled to welcome some special guests to the TD Summer Reading Club this year!

The TD Summer Reading Club runs July 3 to August 26, 2023, and registration opens on June 1.

For each week you attend, you have four options for which days to attend:

• Monday & Tuesday (2 days)
• Wednesday & Thursday (2 days)
• Monday through Thursday (4 days)
• Saturday (1 day, duplication of Monday-Thursday)

On every second Thursday starting July 6, the 9-12 group will be swimming at the Bob Snodgrass Recreation Complex! You will be responsible for dropping off and picking up your child/children at the Rec Plex. All children at the Rec Plex are required to be in the pool; if they prefer not to swim, we will also have activities at the library - please let us know at summer@highriverlibrary.ca or at (403) 652-2917

The Schedule can be found at the bottom of this page, or at the events calendar. In the meantime, check out our other fun programs at the events calendar and sign up for your FREE library card!

What is the Summer Reading Club at the High River Library?

It's a fun day camp for kids and teens! Take a couple of hours each day and discover cool stuff, amazing facts and mysterious fiction! What makes you curious and creative? Explore your neighbourhood, library and the world around you. Show off your collections and creations. Have fun collaborating and creating new things with others.

Discover mysterious, bizarre and intriguing stories gathered from near and far and from our imaginations. What extraordinary treasures will you collect to remember your epic adventures this summer?

Why join our Summer Reading Club? 

Investments in summer reading and learning programs are key to helping kids be successful in academic achievement. Summer reading programs are a proven tool to help bridge the summer gap between school years and to maintain and build reading fluency.

And more than that, the TDSRC inspires kids to explore the fun of reading their way—the key to building a lifelong love of reading.

Registration for the Summer Reading Club opens each year in June. The three age groupings are ages 5 to 8, 9 to 12, and teen. In order to attend the in-person program at High River Library, your child must be at least 5 years old by March 31, 2023.
