Storytime

In storytime this week, we’ll be seeking respite from the summer heat with a visit to our Antartic friends, the penguins. Join us Monday or Wednesday at 10. (n.b. this will be the last twice weekly storytime before we switch to a summer schedule of once weekly storytimes Mondays at 10 for 4-6⁺ year olds.)

Toddler Storytime

Row, Row, Row your boats to the Library for toddler story time Tuesday at 10:30. Join us for ½ an hour of stories, song and silliness. Starting in July, this program will switch to 2:00.

Chicken BBQ

Thanks to everyone who came out for our chicken BBQ on the 16^th. We really appreciate the support of the community.

Map of the World

Calling all geography fans. Do you know where Djibouti is? You will after you help the Library make a huge world map. This summer project is for kids who have patience for detailed painting (no particular artistic ability required) and an interest in Geography. We’ll meet Tuesdays at 10:30 through out the summer. Call the Library at 861-7239 for more information.
