To kick off this popular community initiative, we invite you to PAWS and Read with us at the Reading Marathon Kickoff Party, hosted at the Main Branch Salt Lake City library. It will be held on Saturday, October 26th, 10AM-2PM. It will be a Halloween party (costumes welcome!) packed with family-friendly fun, STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts Mathematics) and literacy activities, face painting, photo booths, and resources. We will even have some meet and greets with some PBS KIDS characters, who have penciled us into their busy schedule.
