We Need Your Help!

We have started the year strong here at the library, with adult programs, Storytime, and weekly after school activities for the kids, and we’re gearing up for summer reading as well! All of that means that we could use your help with supplies. We go through a lot them, and as a nonprofit in a small town, our budget gets stretched to the max!

We do have an Amazon wish list that we regularly update with specific supplies and things that we use often throughout the year, and it also includes a few items for summer reading prizes and snacks for our after-school crowd. If you’re so inclined, we would love for you to check it out and see if you can find something to order for us. Of course, we also always greatly appreciate monetary donations, and any little bit helps!

Teen Life Skills: Cooking Registration

For our teen cooking workshops this month, we will be requiring registration with three easy questions that will help us immensely. Please share if you know teens or parents of teens who are interested!

Register through the Google Form.

Classes are free and will be held at 2:00pm Fridays July 7, 14, and 21 (note time change from original summer reading schedule). Teens must be registered in advance; if they are not, there is no guarantee that there will be supplies/ingredients for them or that they will be able to participate. 

If a teen is registered and plans change, please let us know as soon as possible that they are unable to attend any of the Fridays they are signed up for. 

All three Fridays are not required but if a teen does attend all three, they will be receiving a special gift at the end of the third session. 

Teen Writing Workshop Tomorrow at 1pm!

Don’t forget that tomorrow, Helen Dunlap Newton, author of Night of the Amber Moon and Do Your Hear What I Hear?, will be talking to our teens (6th grade and up) and leading them through a writing workshop! She’ll also be holding a writing contest for them that will conclude in early July. The workshop is from 1:00-2:30 tomorrow (Wednesday)!
