Find Out What's New at the Library...
Wow is the summer flying by or what? Homecoming is already here! Stop down at the library food stand near the ball diamond and help support your local library.
Cool off next to a lake or river this summer and get eaten alive by mosquitoes or stop at the library and cool off while looking at Kathleen D’Angelo’s water themed artwork, mosquito free and cool! While there bring your kids, grandkids, neighbor’s kids or loaner kids with so they can enjoy summer reading and story time:
The Pre-Readers meet with Carolyn at 1:30 p.m. and Readers meet with Eliza at 2:30 p.m. There is lots of fun to be had.
Did you know you can be entertained by more than just picking up a good book or movie at the library? Stop in and check out the performers they have coming in on Thursdays:
“Magic, Water & You with Rick Allen” on July 8th.
“The Treasures of the Great Lakes by the Reed Marionettes” on July 15th.
