Collaborative Summer Reading Week 1: Bat Boxes
July 7, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
This Wednesday kicked off our Summer Reading program, and was our first time collaborating with Darlene at the Clymer-French Creek Free Library. 
The bat box extravaganza was a huge success! We had a great time learning about bats and bat boxes, their role in our environment, and how we can help bring them back from the brink of extinction. We listened to a story about bats playing baseball, and then decorated many lovely new homes to keep our bat friends cozy and warm (thanks to a coat of black paint).

And thanks to the Community Support Group- Summer Recreation for making this event possible! (Special shout out to Emma for helping us paint all the boxes—someone better make you a Thank You cake!
