On June 10, 2023, the Charles County Public Library (CCPL) and the Charles County Department of Recreation, Parks and Tourism will host a free event at Ruth B. Swann Park to celebrate the start of CCPL's summer learning program and #NRPAFamilyHealthDay.

The celebration will include MadScience DC STEM demonstrations, a musical performance by Sun V Set, and field games and physical activities suitable for all ages. Additionally, food will be available for purchase from local food trucks.
"Every summer, the library has a summer learning and reading program for the community. This year we wanted to raise awareness about our program, while partnering with the Department of Recreation, Parks and Tourism to combine reading and fitness," said Kenneth Wayne Thompson, Executive Director of Charles County Public Library.
Ju'Wann Jones, Chief of Recreation for Charles County Recreation, Parks and Tourism, stated, "Charles County Recreation, Parks and Tourism is excited to kick off the summer at the park celebrating families, learning, and health and fitness. June 10 is National Family Health & Fitness Day. We felt that this would be a wonderful opportunity to incorporate the library's summer learning initiative and family health and fitness. We have a wonderful day planned and we are looking forward to seeing everyone out there."
The event will take place from 10AM to 2PM, and all activities are free of charge. Ruth B. Swann Park is located next to the Potomac Branch of the Charles County Public Library.
