Special
Reading Program: Reading
to Rover
In the Reading to Rover program,
beginner or reluctant readers read aloud to furry friends -- gentle, specially trained therapy dogs provided by the Visiting Pet Program. (The general public should not bring their own dogs; only dogs specially trained for this purpose, from the Visiting Pet Program, can participate.)

The program is held on the second Sunday of
each month at 2pm.
