April is the Month of The Military Child, when we recognize our Military Children for their sacrifice and bravery on the home front, as part of the month-long celebration, Child Youth Services (CYS) has scheduled special activities throughout the month of April. We hope you'll join us in celebrating military children, our Super Heroes!

Throughout the month of April children can stop by and pick up an activity sheet at Hays Library that helps solve a puzzle to defeat the supervillain. The activity sheets will be available for pick up all week.
