Kick off a Summer of Reading!
Get ready to kick off a Summer at MCPL like no other! With the theme Read, Score, Roar, readers of all ages will sprint into stories, build reading streaks, and celebrate every reading win along the way. As Kansas City buzzes with international soccer excitement this summer, MCPL is gearing up to turn every book into a goal worth cheering for.
From playful stories and hands-on activities for kids to rewarding challenges for teens and adults, Summer at MCPL is designed to keep minds engaged and curiosity growing all season long. Caregivers can look forward to a program that supports learning outside the classroom, while kids can expect fun surprises, creative activities, and dino-sized adventures.
Save the date: Summer at MCPL runs June 1–August 24, 2026
Full details, prizes, and registration are coming later this spring.
No matter your age or reading level, Summer at MCPL invites everyone to join the team, turn pages into points, and make reading a daily win. Stay tuned - the kickoff is coming soon!
