City Update - Clark Park Storywalk

The StoryWalk is a community project led by the Cumberland County Public Library and funded by a grant from the Women’s Giving Circle of Cumberland County, a fund of the Cumberland Community Foundation. This literacy-focused amenity encourages children, caregivers and their teachers to experience reading, participate in physical activity, and explore nature together. The StoryWalk is a little over a mile and consists of each page of a picture book laminated and displayed along a walking trail so adult and child can read the entire book together. Updated throughout the year, families can read several stories. Picture book displays also feature early literacy and Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) activities along with movement exercises Visitors can enjoy the StoryWalk at Clark Park daily from 8 a.m. to dusk.
