Final Summer Splash!

Summer has gone out with one final, big SPLASH!

Our last summer reading program workshop was held on Wednesday, August 11, at the Gloversville Public Library.

Kyna and I truly enjoyed our final session of rain making, frog croaking, music creating, haiku writing, and fish printing with this wonderful group of children and adults. We brought lots of goodies to make things and left with a warmth in our hearts. Thanks to everyone who made the program possible.

To celebrate the final Splash!, we share haiku and a collage of photos from the event.

Have a wonderful school year, everyone!

Swimming in ocean
Lib likes to play in water
Waves and sand and shells.

Fishing at the pond
Cast my pole and catch a fish
Bass or perch or trout.

Celia likes water
Celia is a great swimmer
It's fun at the lake.

Sharks live in water
Water is good to swim in
Water hose a weed.

Dark river flowing
Bobbing under broken bridge
Big frogs are happy.

Rough waves tumbling
Slowing flowing reflecting
Leaping out to sea.

Haley likes water.
She goes swimming every day
She plays in water.
