Summer Events at Your Library

Summer has arrived and we all know what that means - Holiday Time!
A time to wind down with family and friends.
A time to relax and to catch up on all the things we promised ourselves throughout the year.
A time for activities away from the daily routine. 
AND a time to read all those books sitting on your bedside table.
Happy Reading and Seasons Greetings from all our staff.
