End of Summer Reading Party

Hey Summer Readers, join us for a “congratulations” and “job well done” celebration. The Library Friends will host the party on Thursday, August 21 at 6 PM on the library square and greenspace. All who participated in the summer program, along with their families, are invited to attend. Test your skill at hopscotch, drop some clothes pins in the bottle and toss a few bean bags. March in a game of musical chairs and pin the paper pepperoni on the giant pizza board.

The drawings for the grand prizes (Razor scooter & helmet and shelf music system) will be held on the 21st. You need not be present to win. Refreshments will be served.

So summer readers, gather up your families and join us on August 21.

For more information, contact the librarians or call 320.543.200.

2008 Book/Food Sale a Success

A big Thank You to all who supported the Friends of the Library Book/Food Sale held during Good Neighbor Days. It was a great success. Many readers found just that special book, while the strawberry shortcake and sloppy joes tickled the taste buds of the many folks who dined with us.
