Have you joined our Library Crawl yet? Here are some ideas of things to do at the library.

Pick up a Library Crawl passport to start collecting stamps at any of the 12 participating libraries. The Library Crawl runs until Oct. 31st.

Bingo, but make it library. How many can you check off this ?

This Summer, we had over 900 kids use our snack pantry in the library! Our snack pantry is possible because of community support. Now that school is back in session, we have a lot of kids visit the library after school and we want to be able to provide them with a snack or small meal. If you would like to donate items for our snack pantry, we have donation wishlists on Amazon and Walmart. Donations can be purchased online through the library's wishlists or brought to the front desk.
