The Story Stroll Project is a collaborative, county-wide project that started in 2020 and is designed to promote literacy, exercise and get fresh air at a variety of locations in Somerset County. Each site hosts a children’s book that is cut into 15 separate stations and posted for people to read as they walk between the stations. The project was originally updated monthly and continues to be updated for holidays, festivals and other special occasions.

Be sure to check this site and #socostorystroll on Social Media for the latest stories and updates!
