The Dauphin County Library System has posted several efforts.
The library system is participating in ENGINE of Central PA's Remake Learning Days. Through Sunday, May 16, families can visit any of the library system's eight locations to pick up a STEAM Punks Take and Make kit.
Remake Learning Days events are designed to be hands-on, relevant, and engaging educational experiences for children from prekindergarten through high school and their families, caregivers, and educators. More information is available at http://www.remakelearningdays.org/centralpa.
By participating in a Remake Learning Days of Central PA event hosted by ENGINE of Central PA and completing a post-event survey, families with a student entering kindergarten through ninth grade will have the chance to win a spot in a one-week summer camp at Discovery Space or Whitaker Center for Science and the Arts.
Additionally, the library system has partnered with Hamilton Health Center to recognize Menstruation Hygiene Day, Friday, May 28, by presenting a series. All 13- to 18-year-olds may attend these sessions, which will be held on Zoom on Fridays, May 14 to 28, from 4 to 5 p.m. In addition to discussing various topics, the program series will give teens an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers. To register or learn more, visit http://www.dcls.org/teenevents.
In addition, community members can donate to the Dauphin County Library System's monthlong "Take One or Leave One" product drive. During May, all library locations will accept donations of new, unopened menstrual health products during open hours. Visitors in need of products are encouraged to take what they need. At the end of the month, the remaining donated products will be given to a local shelter. For more information about needs around the world, visit http://tinyurl.com/productdrive.
