Summer Reading Tree Painting with Miss Lori

Please join us at The Friends Place on Monday, August 18th at 6pm for a Family Fun Night.  We will host a dedication for our kaleidoscope with Brittany Delegan singing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow’.  The Friends will be serving root beer floats, and we’ll have an update on all our Fall programming.

The last Summer Reading Book Club will be held following the dedication of the kaleidoscope.  We will discuss “The Lioness” by Chris Bohjalian.  Our Monday Night Book Club will begin on September 8th at 6pm and the Wednesday Morning Club will meet on the 17th at 9am.  If you are interested in joining one of them, please let us know at the library.  We order books through interlibrary loan so there is no need to purchase them.  Both groups welcome new members.  Book lists for the year will be available next week.

Asahi Nordic Exercise will continue on Wednesday mornings at 8:30am.  Come enjoy this morning movement exercise outdoors at The Friends Place.  We will be indoors as the weather warrants.

Kids have until August 30th to earn a reading medal.  All it takes is 50 reading points.  That’s 50 picture books, 10 intermediate or ‘J’ or non-fiction books, or any combination of those groups.  Points may be earned all year long.  For each 25 reading points, kids may choose a reading patch to add to their collections.  We also have a prize box that kids may choose from for each 50 reading points earned.  Prizes will be available until the box is empty.

Monday, August 18 & 25 10am-1pm CLICK Digital Navigator, Jay Seppanen will be here to help with your phone, tablet, and laptop questions.
