Take a StoryWalk Sunday

WAYNESBORO—Area families are invited to attend The Institute’s monthly StoryWalk® Sundays adventure for kids on Sunday, October 9 from 1:30 to 3 p.m. at Pine Hill Recreation Area. 

Kids will join a fun guided walk along the story trail as they read the book together, then make a special craft project to take home.

October’s storybook, “The Pumpkin Fair,” by Eve Bunting.

“This is a fun book to read in the season of pumpkins,” said Pam Rowland, The Institute’s education director. “The text is in rhymes, which children love, with watercolor drawings of a lively pumpkin fair—pumpkins of every size, pumpkin-inspired foods, and a marching band in pumpkin suits!”

The event is free, but pre-registration is required by Oct. 6. To register, email to: [email protected] or call 717-762-0373. Limited to 20 children. 

Children in grades K–5 may be dropped off and picked up at 3 p.m. All families are welcome, but activities are geared for preschool and elementary age kids.
