Public Library of Catasauqua, 302 Bridge St., is planning summer reading programs that are socially distanced and mask friendly. The theme for this year is “Tails and Tales.”

Every child who signs up will get a soft-cover book to love and keep. There will be movies and crafts all about things with tails that tell a tale!

Plans should be finalized by the end of April.

Catasauqua Community Thrift Shop, 113 Bridge St., will reopen April 5.

The new hours are 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Mondays through Fridays.

Masks must be worn when entering the shop, and only five customers are allowed in at a time.

Donations of good, used, clean clothing are accepted during store hours. Proceeds are returned to the community through contributions that support youth and adult programs and services.

The North Catasauqua Recreational Committee is currently on hiatus. Monthly meetings will resume soon.
