Scandinavia Public Library

Families can enjoy the Scandinavia Public Library's story walk in Jorgens Park Preserve. Starting near the northeastern edge of Silver Lake in Scandinavia, the story walk is a 0.4-mile loop trail beginning east of the park's picnic pavilion. As families walk the trail, they will enjoy reading pages from a children's picture book that have been placed sequentially along the trail.

Combining literacy with outdoor activity, the story walk is a great way to enjoy some meaningful family-bonding time.
