ALBANY - Albertson Memorial Library is hosting two fun events in the coming weeks.

Children of all ages are invited to the "Jump Rope for Literacy" event at 10:30 a.m. Saturday.

Jumpers are encouraged to collect pledges from friends and family to help raise funds to promote literacy within the Albany community. Pledge forms can be picked up at the library or downloaded from the library's website at http:// www.albertsonlibrary.org/jumprope4literacy.

Participants will be taught a few jump roping tips, take some practice jumps and then get started meeting jump roping goals.

If not already registered to attend, an RSVP is appreciated. Call 608-862-3491 or email albanypl@tds.net to register.

Mr. Steve's "Music, Magic, Ballooning, and More" show will be at 5 p.m. July 19. He is a frequent visitor to public libraries during the summer. There is no need to register for this free event.

Albertson Memorial Library is at 200 N. Water St. in Albany.
