The Summer Reading programs for July will culminate this week with “Beach Towel Days” at the Coeur d’Alene Public Library, 702 E.

All ages welcome. ► Summer Reading Water Works Carnival: Friday, July 23, 1-4 p.m. in the Community Room and the park.

Carnival will feature Craft booths, a science fair, snow cones and “Extreme Science with Radical Rick” (be sure to bring your towels). ► Within a Days Drive 6: This is not part of Summer Reading, but an enjoyable program for the whole family.
