Dillon Public Library Kicks Off Summer Reading Program with Teen Pickleball Event

DILLON — The Dillon Public Library is serving up some fun for local teens as it launches the first Teen Tuesday event of its 2026 Summer Reading Program.

Teens ages 13 to 18 are invited to join library staff on Tuesday at 6 p.m. at the pickleball courts located at 1573 Overland Road for an evening of learning and playing one of the nation's fastest-growing sports.

Participants will have the opportunity to learn the basics of pickleball, play games, and enjoy snacks, including pickle-flavored chips, pickle Popsicles, and bottled water. A parent or guardian waiver will be required for participation.

In addition to the activities, one lucky teen will win a pickleball set.

The library is also reminding teens to mark their calendars for one of the program's most anticipated annual events. The Annual Bannack Hide-and-Seek for teens is scheduled for June 16.

Library officials encourage families to stop by the Dillon Public Library to pick up a 2026 Summer Reading Program brochure, which includes a complete schedule of events and activities planned throughout the summer.
