Down on the Farm

On Saturday, the library hosted a variety of different farm animals on our front lawn!  

Check out all of the photos from the event here.

During the program, children could participate in our

Apple Raffle

Participants had to guess how many apples we had in our wheelbarrow.  The answer?

43 apples

Congratulations to our 4 Winners:

Mia Y.

Jake F.

Owen M.

Jack S.

Our winners won all the apples in the wheelbarrow AND a subscription to National Geographic Kids magazine.

National Candy Corn Month

National Candy Corn Month is just around the corner!

Celebrate with us by stopping by the Children's Desk any time in the month of October to take a guess at our Candy Corn Jar.  The winner will take home the whole jar and a gift card!  

Pinwheels for Peace

Help us celebrate International Day of Peace!

Stop by the library at any time in the next few days and decorate a pinwheel.  Templates for the pinwheels are located in the Children's Department along with coloring implements.  You can decorate as many as you want!

Be sure to stop by on Monday, September 21st to see the "planted" Pinwheels for Peace on our front lawn.

Blog Updates

We have updated some information on our blog.

Please note:

1. There are a few changes to our Resources page:  

• We have new museum passes available through the library.  New information and links have been added.
• We have added a link to our Day Care and Preschools Directory.

2. There are new printable program calendars for September and October on our calendar page.

3. There is now a page and submission form for teachers to submit assignments that will require library resources.  By submitting this information, it allows librarians to prepare and order materials in advance for students who come to the library for resources.

4. Leveled book lists will be available on the blog beginning in September.  They will have their own page, so look for that tab in the upcoming weeks.
