Join us tomorrow morning between 10:30 and 12:30 for Chain Reaction fun with dominoes!

Creating a dominoes chain reaction is a great way to highlight STEM topics such as force, kinetic and potential energy, and momentum. Successful builders will also need to utilize coordination, patience, and creativity, but the best part of dominoes chain reactions is that they are incredibly FUN!

No registration required. Drop in anytime between 10:30 and 12:30 to play.

Our next Let’s Dish program is just 1 week away!
Will we see you next Thursday night (6/18) at 6:00?

Each month during our Let’s Dish program we feature a specific ingredient or food theme with a guest speaker presenting information on that topic. This month Mary Richmond will be discussing Eating for Longevity, based on the principles covered in Dr. Michael Greger’s book “How Not to Die”!

We’ll have a limited number of copies of the book available for check out at the event. Registration is required for this month’s Let’s Dish program. You can reserve your seat by calling the library at 518-283-3721.

Next Wednesday evening, 6/17 at 6:00, Ms. Phil will be leading another super fun STEM Night program. This month we’ll be exploring wildlife ecology, food chains, and skeletons with an owl pellet dissection lab!

What’s an owl pellet? We’re glad you asked! Owls generally swallow their prey whole but are unable to digest certain parts such as bones, teeth, and fur. The owl’s gizzard packs the undigested parts into a ball called a “pellet” that they spit, or cast, back up. It’s these pellets that we’ll investigating and dissecting.

Seating and supplies are limited so registration is required. You can give us a call at 518-283-3721 to reserve your seat.

It's going to be a great week at the library.

A HUGE thank you to Poestenkill Community Forest trail stewards, Mary & Jane, for hosting an acorn exploration program at the library tonight, in conjunction with our new StoryWalk, “Acorn Was a Little Wild”. Everyone (young and old) had such a great time. We got to hear the story, learn a little bit about the Community Forest, make our own acorn people and lanterns & everyone was super excited to take home a baby oak to plant at home! It was a great night at the library.
