Thank you for your positive feedback on the new web design and newsletter format. Remember to keep me informed of upcoming events so I can highlight them here (use this form) and keep sending me your recipes. Who has some good cool summer recipes?

Remember our local Guard Unit as they make their way to the Middle East and pray for their safe return.

It was so much fun to participate in the library hug on Monday. I have to admit it took a minute for us all to find our place and figure out just how do you hug a library, but we did it and I'm glad I was able to be there. When you see Katherine Horn or any member of the library staff, thank them for the great job they do. Here are a few pictures from the event.
