Bruton Memorial Library held its summer reading kickoff event June 3.
The event featured children's activities and a performance from JiggleMan, a Florida-based entertainer who is credited with seven appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman. The event was the first in a series of activities the Library is holding all summer long to encourage scholastic engagement in months where students' reading and math retention historically slip. John Russell, youth services librarian, said about 225 people attended Saturday's event.
