Are you ready for another season of fun? We are! This fall, our Sunnyvale Library and Recreation Services team continues to work hard to provide a variety of classes and services to keep our community of all ages and abilities engaged. I’m looking forward to the new season and the many exciting opportunities it brings. Here are some highlights:
• Evening of Cultural Arts is back! Check out our fantastic line up on page 4
• Space is still available in our Super Safari Preschool program for children ages 3 to 5 (check out page 10) plus check out our NEW Early Learners Art Class
• School-age youth can flex their basketball skills and participate in our popular Sunnyvale Youth Basketball League (see page 27)
• Reserve your spot now in one of our new December school break camps, including Camp Discovery and Wizarding World of Engineering Camp (see page 19)
• Touch 3 Volleyball Clinic is a must for teens wishing to develop their volleyball skills (see page 31)

Summertime is also family time! It was fantastic to see so many people enjoy our summer activities. I am proud of my team’s contribution in hosting Sunnyvale’s Fourth of July Drone Show at Baylands Park where an estimated crowd of 8,000 enjoyed the tale of Sunnyvale, then and now, while celebrating America’s Independence. In our summer camps, more than 3,200 youth attended over 90 traditional, art, sports, STEM, and teen leadership camps. The Adventure Begins at Your Library Reading Program drew over 2,500 children, teens and adults. Our aquatics team made a big splash by delivering over 250 swim lessons and hosted 1,289 recreation swim participants during the summer season. We enjoyed seeing all of the families at our Thursday Night in the Park events at Washington and Lakewood Parks.
Don’t forget our Sunset Movie Series kicks off Friday, Aug. 2. For a complete listing of movies, check out the Summer Activities guide or visit Sunnyvale.ca.gov search “Special Events.” Can’t make it?

This November, Sunnyvale voters will consider a bond measure for a new Main Library. Upgrading the Library is part of the City’s Civic Center Master Plan. Over the past several months, the city gathered input from community members about their library values and needs. We also developed concepts and cost estimates for renovation versus building new. In June, the City Council decided to place a measure on the November ballot for a bond that would fund design and construction of a new Main Library.
To learn more about Sunnyvale’s ballot measures, including the library bond, visit: Sunnyvale.ca.gov (Search: Ballot Measures)
Finally, thank you to those who provided feedback on proposed upgrades to the Sunnyvale Main Library through surveys, events and meetings. The box above provides information about next steps.
Sincerely,
Michelle Perera Director of Library
