February 2015
The month is almost over and what have we been up to?
First the seniors made Valentine boxes and learned how to fold a dollar into a heart of the 12th.
Next up the adults made heart shaped bird feeders for Valentines day on the 13th.
Also on the 13th the kids made a Valentine snack, dipped pretzels into chocolate and made a Valentine box.
On the 19th we have our first Alphabet Food Club. This month the food started with the letters B, K or T.
And up last was Mobile Device Boot Camp on the 23rd. Patrons brought their devices in and we tried to help them learn more about them.

Alphabet Club
The library is starting a new food club. Some of you remember “Geography club’ where we made food from different states and countries. Well now we are making food that starts with certain letters.
Each month we will have a main soup, chowder or stew provided by our “Friends” of the Library group. Each person will then bring an accompanying dish that starts with one of the three letters provided that month. At the moment we are trying a new time frame, our first meeting will be Thursday, February 19th at 5:00 PM.
This month the “Friends” will provide Broccoli Cheese Soup. The letters for the month are B, K or T.Â
Remember you can bring anything you want as long as it starts with the letters of the month. You can even rearrange to make it work. Say you have spinach bacon dip, you just call it bacon spinach dip, or grilled cheese? call it buttered grilled cheese.
Come join us for good food and conversation on the 19th!…
What’s Happening in February?
The library will be celebrating Valentine’s day early this year.
First up we will be making heart boxes with the seniors at the Richmond Community Building on Thursday, February 12th right after lunch. We will also be showing them how to fold a dollar bill into a heart.
On Friday, February 13th we will be doing two different things. First the adults will be making birdseed hearts at 1:00 PM and at 4:00 PM the kids will be making heart boxes and sweetheart buddy treats. Both groups will also have some melted chocolate, pretzels and marshmallows to make something for their sweetheart or just to eat.
The library and Friends are also trying to get a new food club started, more information will be posted later.
