Our Summer Reading Program is for all ages and includes both live programs and reading challenges. Families can participate in presentations by the Oglebay Good Zoo and the Schrader Environmental Center, while a Writing Workshop led by Professor Wesley Bishop of Jacksonville State University and evening yoga classes led by Paige Creamer of Moonbaby Wellness are dedicated to adults only.
