Summary

Staff outlined summer programming including a dinosaur fossil dig, a fire truck at kickoff, and two evening events timed to community festivals; staffing and volunteer support were discussed as constraints for weekend programming.

CJ Crawford described the branch's summer lineup: a dinosaur‑themed kickoff with a fossil dig led by a local volunteer and a fire truck visit, plus two larger evening events (one in June and one in July) planned to coincide with the community peach festival. "He's also gonna bring the fire truck for the kickoff as well," Crawford said, describing interactive elements intended to attract families.

Staff noted staffing challenges for Friday and Saturday events and said volunteers and program planning are essential to run weekend programming. The branch plans multiple age‑appropriate activities during summer reading and will refine staffing and scheduling as the season approaches.
