Children's Programs:

 

Mommy & Me (Newborn-Preschool with parent/care-giver)

Goosebumps (K-6th grade)

Teen Time (7th-12th grade)

  •  We have tea parties, crafts, games, and book discussions in this program accompanied with snacks. This program takes place on most Thurdays of the month from 5-6pm.

1,000 Books Before Kindergarten

  • This  is for newborns and their parents/caregivers. 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is a way to encourage parents/caregivers to read to children to better prepare them for Kindergarten. It involves: bonding with your child, educating a rising generation, and so much more!  Any child from birth until they enter kindergarten is welcome to participate! 

Adult Programming:

Chair Yoga

  • Chair yoga takes place every Monday and Thursday from 1-2pm in the meeting room. This form of exercise improves both physical and mental well-being and can be beneficial to attend even on days we’d like to stay in bed. Check out the calendar or pick up a flier at the library to see the dates we will not have this program. We hope to see you there!

Page Turners

  • Book discussion will be on Monday,  February 9th. This month we will be reading Anne Frank's' The Diary of a Young Girl. Goodreads summarizes: "Her diary tells of the life of a group of Jews waiting in fear of discovery by the Nazis. Yet within it, a tender love story slowly unfolds--from her shy avoidances of a young man named Peter to their incessant glances and fist kiss. Thus, her diary is not a lament but a song to life, no matter what the conditions, no matter what the threats."
    Pick up a book today to join us at our next meeting!

Color Me Happy
