The Jefferson Kiwanis Club is partnering with the Jefferson public library, the Jefferson A&W restaurant, and the Greene County Fair board to host its second annual Story Stroll for children ages 4-7 on Saturday, July 16.
The event will be held at the Milwaukee Depot next to the Greene County Fairgrounds in Jefferson. Every child participant will receive a free book and a voucher for a free ice cream cone at A&W.
This year’s Story Stroll will honor local heroes, including local law enforcement officers, firefighters, and medical professionals. Story Strolls will begin approximately every 10 minutes, with the first story stroll beginning at 9 am and the last story stroll beginning at 10 am.
Kiwanians, Friends of the Jefferson Public Library, and local heroes will read two books to participants. In addition, children will be able to look inside a police car, firetruck, and ambulance and to meet real local heroes who keep our community safe.
All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. In the event of rain, the Story Stroll will be relocated to the Greene County Community Center.
