Visit the “StoryWalk®” outside at the Library.  The book, “The First Day of Winter” by Denise Fleming will remain up through the month of January. If you enjoy reading it during library open hours, Monday-Thursday, 10 am-5:45 pm & Friday & Saturday 9-11:45 am, stop in the library to check out something from our children’s collection, and pick-up a Take & Make project.  There’s a special craft for 4th Grade & up this month, as well as one for the younger set.

The Friends of the Library will meet on Thursday, January 6th at 6 pm.  Plans for the 2022 Bellringer Run are sure to be on the agenda.  Conversation & Crafts will follow at 7 pm.

Hope to see you soon at the library!
