Bring your project along to the library meeting room and work alongside like-minded folks.Led by Thami Seabrooke, Yarns and Threads will be a great group for trading ideas and making new friends. Stop by the library Tuesday evening and get in on the very beginnings of a brand new group!



Field Trip Day! Our library welcomed 4 classes of 6th grade PBL students as part of their Walking Tour this morning. They learned a bit of library history, trekked through the stacks, said hello to the bear, performed with puppets, looked for their favorite books, and created beautiful designs for our Magical Magnetic Wall. Thanks for stopping by, Ladies and Gents! Have a great summer!

Preschool Story Hour

One final Story Hour for these three delightful children, and they're off to Kindergarten in the fall!
We had fun reading stories, building Cat-in-the-Hat towers, and creating our very own clothespin puppets!
