Once upon a time, in a small lake community…

It might not sound like the most riveting start to a story, which is why you’ll have to join us at the Warsaw Community Public Library to hear a better one! This summer, the Lilly Center is partnering with WCPL to host Stories & STEM, a morning containing a hands-on science activity paired with a read-aloud story about fossils or the underground. Families who choose to complete a survey during the event can enter a drawing to win a copy of the book.

The featured book will be Fossils Tell a Story by Yu-ri Kim, and we will have examples of fossils for students to examine. They can be paleontologists for a morning, as they use tools to complete a dinosaur dig of their own and even create their own fossils to take home!

We know summer days can often be hard to fill, so let us make your job a little easier! Lilly Center staff will be present to help assist students, but we ask that parents stay for the entirety of the event. No RSVP is necessary.
