This is the last week of the Claiborne Parish Library’s Summer Reading Program.

So far, the library has had a total of 52 participants who have read 394 books. The goal is to hit 450 books read for this year’s program. 

On Thursday, June 29, Harvey Rabbit and Friends will be at the library at 2 p.m.

Harvey Rabbit and Friends include entertaining educators and music teachers, Tim and Laura Allured, who both graduated from McNeese State University in Lake Charles in 1983. According to their bio, they decided to take an “early retirement” in 1986, from teaching to pursue entertaining full-time as ventriloquists.

They specialize in school programs during the school year and library programs during the summer months. All of their programs include a positive message and are interactive for all who attend. 

For those interested in attending this week’s event, please contact the library at 318-927-3845.
