The Library holds and Open House every April in honor of National Library Week. This year’s open house was Tuesday, April 15.  We like for people to come and see what’s new or changed from year to year. This year we have 2 new computers and the sidewalk was fixed. We were hoping to have a book drop but it did not get done. The book drop is a work in progress and  we hope to have it done before summer.

Spring break 2014  what did you do? The library has St. Patrick’s day crafts, chocolate & cake pops and Gummies and peeps, oh and of course the attack of the Green Mustache’s!

Monday on St. Patrick’s Day the kids colored a Leprechaun picture and decorated a shamrock and for some reason everyone grew a Green Mustache.

Wednesday, March 19th the kids got to dip cake pops into chocolate. How can you go wrong with that??

Thursday we made Peeps and Gummy worms, lips and bears. Once again how can you go wrong with this? The kids love this stuff.

What a Spring Break! But we hope the kids had fun!

The library held it’s annual Chocolate Day on Thursday, February 13th. Adults and Kids were invited to the library to make chocolate suckers, chocolate hearts and so on.

This year we had four kinds of chocolate and some chocolate cheese ball. There was butterscotch, watermelon, raspberry and vanilla chocolate, and for just a little while there was root beer flavored chocolate [request by the kids] Everyone really enjoys our annual chocolate day! Chocolate is good for ALL ages!
