Get Ready for Summer Reading

Schools get out this week, so be on the lookout while you're driving for kids crossing the roads unexpectedly. Until then, though, here are some things to do to get though today:

You Need To Know About Summer Reading: While kids can join the Warren Township Library summer reading program anytime, why wait? School ends this week, kids will be looking for things to do by a week from tomorrow...having books to read fills in those moments between swimming and late-night snacks. While you're at the library with the kids, check out the adult summer programs—you can register for the events starting today.

You Need To Know How Does Your Garden Grow: If you love gardening, check out this week's meeting of the Washington Valley Gardening Club, at 9 a.m. in the , 1 Vogt Dr., Bridgewater. You'll find fellow herbiphiles and weed-o-phobiacs, and learn some great tips on growing.

You Need To Know Strength and  Flexibility: Warren has lots of Monday activities to stay healthy, from the Healthy Bones class at Trinity United Church and the Body and Soul Fitness class at Stonecrest Community Church, both at 9:30 a.m., to Lunchtime Yoga at Onyx Mind Body, and the Recreation Commission's Co-ed volleyball and basketball. Seniors may also want to check into the Upper and Lower Body Exercise classes at the Somerset County Senior Wellness Center, 202 Mount Airy Road in Basking Ridge, at 10:30 a.m. The free program is aimed at  improving flexibility and movement.

You Need To Know About Scholarships: Tonight's four-hour Senior Awards Program at Watchung Hills Regional High School celebrates the accomplishments of the senior class. Attendees will hear all of the amazing scholarships and awards the Class of 2011 is receiving in recognition of their scholastic and athletic work during their time at WHRHS. The program begins at 6 p.m. 

You Need To Know The High School Board: When the board meets at 7 p.m. at the school, they'll be discussing a number of staff appointments—and the new pressbox planned for Tozier Stadium. Three bids for the project were received, all higher than the board had been expecting, so expect a lively discussion.
