Can you sing all the words to "One Week"?

Every time you hear the word SOMEBODY, do you immediately think of the song All Star?

Do you know the exact dates of both the orginal Woodstock Festival, AND Woodstock 99?

If you answered YES to any or all of these, you probably belong at our next Adult Trivia Night!

On Thursday, August 20 at 5:30 pm, we will be having Adult Trivia Night: Rock-n-Roll Edition!

Teams of 2-6 people will compete to be the kings and queens of rock...trivia. Don't have a team? Come anyway, and we will make one!

No registration required, for more information, contact Dianne at [email protected]

Did you know that August is National Immunization Awareness Month?

Did you also know that one of the interviews in our Oral History Collections is Joe Randig talking about his childhood experiences with polio?

We have a very special intergenerational program planned for this month!

Join us on August 25th at 5:30 pm for a Family History Potluck!

Patrons aged 13 and up are invited to come learn about how you can create and maintain recipe collections that are important to your family history.

We are also asking patrons to bring in one of their favorite family dishes to share at a pot luck that will follow the presentation. Be sure to bring a copy of the recipe as well so that we can collect and share them!

For more information, contact Anita at [email protected]

Who is ready for the No Shelf Control Book Club?

We meet at 5:45 pm on Thursday, August 6th!

Tomorrow is our final weekly summer program for kids in grades K-5. Come learn about rocks!

We can’t believe today is our final Unearthing Storytime session of the summer, these 8 weeks have gone so fast! We don’t know about you, but we think summer reading has really ROCKED this year!

Our Readers Rock Wrap Up is this Thursday, August 6, starting at 11 am with a magic show, snacks at 12 pm, prizes at 12:30, and rock painting at 1!

Regular Storytime (formerly known as PlayMateys) will take the month of September off, to let everyone settle back into school routines, but we do have some special storytimes planned for next month.

Look for regular weekly storytimes to return for the fall session in October, with a new name and updated format, but still the same old storytime fun!

Our August Crafty Adults session is full and registration is now closed!

This month's children's passive program has adventure calling our name!

All month long, kids can visit the children's department, and vote for which of the posted adventures they would most like to go on!

New children's activity kits are available today!
