Librarians vs. 5th Graders

It's on!  Starting today and lasting through the whole month of October, we librarians have challenged the 5th graders to see who can read more.  While we may be greatly outnumbered, our mere four librarians against whole classes of 5th graders, we are absolutely up to the challenge!

Join Us For Our End of Program Picnic!

Poké Stop

Did you know that our library is a Poké Stop?  Stop by and stock up on Poké balls, potions, revives, and eggs!  While you're here catch a few wild Pokémon.  They seem to be hiding all over the library!

Brain Games in the Library

 As part of our Summer Reading Program, we hosted Brain Games at the Library last Tuesday.  The kids had fun building puzzles, constructing with Legos, and playing games.

Obstacle Course

Yesterday's weather was perfect for our obstacle course at North Park.  We had a great turn out and this kids seemed to have a blast going through the course.  Many went back through a couple times!

Summer Reading Program: Physical Therapy

Last week, we had so much fun with Chuck Miller's presentation on preventing sports injuries.  In addition to giving some great tips on stretching, how to make homemade ice packs and heat packs, and showing us some great exercises; he also set up an obstacle course for the kids to do.  They had so much fun going through it and many went back many times to do it again.

A Great National Library Week

We've had such a great week filled with learning about the library, scavenger hunts, games, and more! Thank you to all the students from WE for helping us celebrate National Library Week!!

Still Looking For Donations

Summer is coming and we are busy getting prepped for all the great activities we have planned.  We are still looking for 12 pack can boxes so we can create our Giant Pop Box Jenga.  We will be covering them in plain paper, so they don't have to look pretty.  They would just need to be structurally sound.  If you have any, please drop them by the library anytime during business hours.

We are also still looking for individual sized yogurt lids for crafts.
