Welcome Librarians! 

Due to such a high demand from schools during the school year, Outreach targets the summer to meet the needs of the libraries.

Since 1997, Outreach has targeted the Michigan Libraries Summer Reading Program and has developed and marketed a program to match each year’s theme.  Starting with 8 libraries with The Bear Necessities in 1997, Outreach has grown to over 80 scheduled library programs for the summer of 2008.

Now you may wonder, what can a Nature Center offer your library each year?  Well, that’s just it!  We put our creative minds together and come up with a program that connects your theme with nature and have had great success.  Every summer is different! We continue to exceed expectations and look forward to the challenge of each year’s theme. 

For the 2010 Summer Reading Program we are offering a specially-designed program for the theme "Make a Splash - Read!" Click on the link 2010 Summer Library Program Offerings to check out "Boatloads of Great Lakes Fun."  Our creative staff has put together another summer of fun to visit your library in 2010.  Please check out our 2010 prices in the block to your right.

Thank you and if you have any questions please give me a call or
