Library News 
Read now about all the activities going to take place at the library. Here is something you can help us with. If we can collect enough soft plastic (500 pounds) by January,  we will get a free Trex bench for our yard. So far, we have 88 pounds. So please collect clean soft plastic like bread bags, bubble wrap, case overwrap, dry cleaning bags, grocery bags, etc. and bring them to the library community room.  Just think how much plastic we are keeping out of landfills or ending up in the ocean.
