Summer Read Along the Path at Gibson Woods

Join the Hammond Public Library in collaboration with Gibson Woods Nature Preserve for a StoryWalk. The trail features pages and activities from a book that fits the season for families to enjoy in celebration of the nature and exploration. Our summer story displayed from June 8-August 31 is Out of Nowhere by Chris Naylor-Ballesteros. Look for the activity at the end of the path to earn a prize!
