*As always, parents or guardians are encouraged to stay and participate in our story time programs. Siblings, younger or older, are also welcome to attend if they do not distract from the program.
*To ensure that we provide enough craft supplies, please register your child. But don't worry, this doesn't commit you to attend every week and drop-ins are always welcome!
We have a family group on Facebook! We currently share library program information and other local children's activities.
