Join STAR Net for: How Your Library Can Celebrate "Lights on Afterschool" Thursday, August 16, 2018 at 3:00 p.m. (EDT), 2:00 p.m. (CDT) Register Here: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_aZWZQQmWS4WWrjj69yZ8rA Public libraries and afterschool programs share the common goal of providing safe and enriching environments for participating children and engaging families in their communities. Across the country, 10.2 million kids attend afterschool programs where they have access to a healthy snack or a meal, academic help, and enrichment activities like reading, STEM, and art. Launched in October 2000, Lights On Afterschool is the only nationwide event celebrating afterschool programs and their important role in the lives of children, families and communities. The effort has become a hallmark of the afterschool movement, and on October 25th more than 8,000 Lights On Afterschool rallies will be held across all 50 states and the District of Columbia, attracting more than 1 million Americans and garnering media coverage nationwide. Join us for this webinar to learn more about Lights On Afterschool, and how your library can participate. Cathy Lancaster Youth Services Coordinator Library of Michigan 702 W.
