Thursday, May 30, 1991 -THE KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Page 3B Summer reading program to begin The Alien Andromeda , Oscar the Robot, rocket ships, space shuttle, comets... What does all this have to do with the library? Plenty!! It's kick off time for the Summer Reading Club, on Saturday, June 8, at 10:00 a.m. in the Josephine E. Weir Auditorium of the Mauney Memorial Library. The theme, "Outer Space...Calling All REaders," pro- vides the framework for a fantastic summer of reading, fun, and activi- ty as we assemble a large cast of players, and recreate space vehicles and contemplate the universe. A series of special events have been scheduled for the kick off. One of our most interesting guests will be Andromeda. On tour of the universe, she will interrupt her busy itinerary to meet with the boys and girls of Kings Mountain for one day only. Her costume of purple and orange and green will reflect the etherial light of the heavens which is her native habi- tat. It may be difficult to communi- cate with her, because she does not speak the language of earthlings, but you will want to read her story in one of our books. Andromeda will be bringing with her an interesting collection of items and information about the vast universe in which we live. Among other things, she will give us her secret formula for making a comet, and an adequate supply of ingredients from the warehouse of the Milky Way Headquarters. You will be able to see a comet form before your very eyes as she com- bines the magic ingredients. For those who come early, Andromeda will bring a taste of space ice cream. She said that she could not bring a large supply with her to earth, so those children who wish to sample the unusual delica- cy will need to come early. The doors will open at 9:30. Another guest at our kick off will be Oscar the Robot, who will meet the children in the auditori- um. Streamlined and efficient with his orange and purple dials and buttons, and an automated smile in place. Oscar will be with us the en- tire summer. Oscar believes in “reading, and he carries a book with him on top of his head everywhere he goes! Our main speaker will be 4-H coordinator Mrs. Florence Brooks. Mrs. Brooks will present a short video entitled "Blue Sky Below My Feet... Adventures in Space Technology,” and will discuss space exploration in terms of food, fibers and forces. Much of the technology which was developed for the space program has become a part of our every day life. she will display items we now use reg- ularly which were originally devel- oped for the astronauts. Other displays include models of rocket ships, space shuttles and miscellaneous space craft. Children WCU OFFERS COURSE-The Small Business and Tecnology Development Center at Western Carolina University's Center for Improving Mountain Living will offer free business counseling ses- sions in Shelby June 6 and June 20 at the Shelby Chamber of Commerce. Call 487-8521 for ap- pointment. Susan Bristol Rose Turner ® Librarian can sit in a rocket ship and pretend they are traveling through space. A _ mobile of the solar system will de- pict the location of the planets in relation to the sun, and star charts will outline some of the well known constellations. At the kick off, Mrs. Luise Sanders, Outreach and Children's Coordinator, will enroll children in the Summer Reading Club and give each child a log in which to keep a record of the authors and ti- tles of the books read during the summer. This year, children will al- so need to keep a record of the amount of time spent in reading. Mrs. Sanders will give a brief overview of the activities planned for the summer. At the same time, younger chil- dren may also register for a 4-H workshop which will be conducted by student volunteers. Topics of study include insects, drama, 4-H discovery, soil science, bicycle safety, and more. the student in- structors will teach small groups of - younger children in an organized curriculum on the chosen subject, and lead the class in preparing pro- jects. Students who wish to serve as instructors must be 12 years of age or older, responsible, and work well with children. Mrs. Brooks will conduct a training workshop for student instructors on Friday, June 7, at 10:00 a.m. at the library. Each student who wishes to teach must complete the training work- shop. As a final attraction at the kick off, a Hana Barbara character from Carowinds will meet with the boys and girls who enroll for summer reading club. He will arrive about 11:00 O'clock to shake hands with the children and welcome them to a busy summer of reading and fun. Larger than life, his furry figure will tower over the children as he presents his humorous panomine and draws laughter from the crowd. There is a lot going on at the Mauney Library this summer. You won't want to miss it. For further information, call the library at 739- 2371.
