1000 Books Before Kindergarten.

 

This fall, the Plymouth Public Library is launching a brand-new literacy program called 1000 Books Before Kindergarten. Studies have shown that the more children ages 0-5 hear books read to them at home, the more prepared they will be to learn to read upon reaching kindergarten.

1000 Books Before Kindergarten is an self-guided, ongoing program for all children, from birth up until they start school, with the goal of encouraging every child to read at least 1000 books before kindergarten. Any book your child hears counts toward their program goal, including coming to story time at the library and books that you have read before, so children can begin this program at any age and easily meet their goal!

The launch party for this program will take place at the Main Library on Wednesday, August 20th at 11am. Join our Youth Services Department staff for stories, tips on how to succeed in helping your child meet his or her reading goals, and to learn more about how the program works. Families will also take home a booklet to track each child's progress!

For more information, please call the Youth Services Department at 508.830.4250, or check us out at www.plymouthpubliclibrary.org. The library is fully accessible; let us know if you need special accommodation to attend.

Janice Dompke has performed throughout New England since 1999, studying voice at HB Studios and privately with Gayle Swymer in New York City. Holding a Theater degree from St. Norbert College, she has served with several established local theater companies as an actress, director and teacher.

Great White Shark Encounter off Manomet Point

On Wednesday, September 3, 2014, the Town of Plymouth received multiple 911 calls reporting two kayakers in distress in the area off Manomet Point. While en-route to the location Plymouth Police updated the Harbormaster Department that another kayaker had paddled out to help the kayakers in distress and was with them awaiting the arrival of Plymouth Police. Plymouth Harbormaster and Plymouth Fire arrived on-scene and quickly removed the two persons in the water.  Both individuals were seriously frightened, but otherwise unharmed. The third kayaker paddled back to shore. The kayaks were then retrieved from the water and a large shark bite was noticed on the bottom of the kayak.  Shortly thereafter, the Division of Marine Fisheries, John Chisholm, examined the bite mark and confirmed it to be from a great white shark. 

The Harbormaster Department along with the Massachusetts Environmental Police will continue patrols in the area for any shark sightings.  The Town of Plymouth is taking cautionary measures by posting Plymouth Long Beach, White Horse Beach, and beach areas along Stephen’s Field and Nelson Park are closed to swimmers.  We are strongly advising that people do not go swimming because of this sighting and shark activity in the area.  If beach patrons choose to swim, they may do so at their own risk with the understanding that if they choose to enter the water, they should do so cautiously and avoid going into the water beyond waist depth.

Our goal is to always provide safe and appropriate access to beach patrons, answer your questions or address any concerns you may have.  Please do not hesitate to contact the Harbormaster’s staff either onsite at the beach or via phone using the contact information provided herein.
