Batman, Deadpool and “Star Wars” characters Kylo Ren and Rey were on hand at the Turlock Public Library on Saturday to help kick off the annual Summer Reading Program, which helps students sharpen their reading skills while on break from school. Amid the games, obstacle courses and superheroes that filled the lawn was an opportunity for parents to sign themselves or their children up for the program. “We just wanted to have something that would get the families to come out together,” said Regional Children’s Librarian Michelle Coxford.
