We are excited to start a new program and bring back some popular programs! You don’t have to travel far to have a fun spring break!

In case you missed our earlier announcement, we have opened our seed library once again! Stop by the library and get a jumpstart on your summer garden with free seeds! Seeds are limited to 3 packets per person per visit.

We’re also excited to start our first Chess Club! If you are interested in learning chess or honing your chess playing skills, come play with our professional chess sets every Wednesday from 4-6 pm starting on March 12th.

Don’t miss our kids events during spring break: Story Time, Movie Day, and Kids Crafts!

Lastly, we are bringing back our 2nd Annual Puzzle Tournament! Thanks to a generous donation from the puzzle company Ravensburger, participants can team up and race to finish a 300-piece puzzle and keep their puzzles as prizes! Participants need to sign up as teams with an adult team captain. To sign up or learn more, ask our Outreach and Adult Services Librarian, Chanelle Gontarz, at 620-431-3820.
