It’s been a fantastic summer, thanks to the parents, grandparents, and caregivers who registered their children in our summer reading program. Seeing our library active with kids in the library is wonderful. So, please, keep coming weekly. We hope you’ll make visiting the library a part of your weekly routine.
School-age children are invited to Lego My Library on Saturday, August 20 at 11:00 am. Miss Abby will have a fun build challenge ready for our builders.
