Magic will be in the air in Jackson City Park as children and young adults gather to celebrate a successful summer of reading on Tuesday, Aug. 1.

Riverside Regional Library's "Party in the Park" will feature a magic show and puppets by Mr. and Mrs. Bob Lancaster, face painting by Della Bollinger, a clown and helium balloons as well as refreshments.

The event concludes the Summer Reading Program entitled "Rock Your World," in which over 200 area children and youth completed the program by reading the required number of books.

Participants who turned in their book logs by July 25 will receive their prizes at the party.

The event will begin at 9:30 a.m. in the same location as last year's party at the Optimists' walking trail around the pond near "Safe City." Those eligible for prizes who are unable to attend the party may pick up their prize packets at the main circulation desk at the Riverside Regional Library in Jackson at any time following the party.
