SR Kick-Off and Craft Materials Swap

On By

Library staff and volunteers involved with preschool and children’s programming were invited to the annual Communities of Practice event. They brought along their plans, resources, and ideas to share. Those who had surplus craft materials, brought them along to swap for things you can use. All the Richmond librarians went to this event. They showed some of their ideas for this summer and discovered things they had not thought of yet. It was a fun event. The new addition to NEKLS was a Sno-Cone machine! All the librarians will most likely be using it this summer [Richmond will!].…

Israel

On By

In April the Richmond Geography club “went to” Israel. There happens to be a couple here in town who have been to Israel, so they volunteered to come to our meeting and give a talk and show us artifacts that they brought back with them. Don and Nadine Poss own a Real Estate business right here in Richmond and the club was ecstatic to have them come to our meeting.

They brought photo albums, a wooden “Last Supper” statue, several Rosaries, and more. Don & Nadine told about their trip and what all they saw. What a coo for our group to have someone right in town to come and talk.

Next month the club is “going to” Brazil.
