Get in the holiday spirit on Wednesday, December 21st from 2-3 p.m. at our Holiday Tea and handbell concert.  Enjoy the sounds of the season with the Blair-Taylor High School Handbell Choir as they wrap up their mini-tour of the Coulee Region with a special performance at the library.  This group of talented teens has been working on their Christmas songs since September, with early morning practices and much hard work and dedication.  Directed by Karla Hulne, these musicians have performed at local churches, Valley View Mall, and  the Rotary Lights display in LaCrosse.  They have also been interviewed at school by News Channel 8 and will appear on their morning show live on Friday, December 16th at 6:00 a.m.  Please support these talented musicians by attending this concert.  It truly is a beautiful way to celebrate the holiday season.  Enjoy some hot chocolate and Christmas cookies as well and sign up for a door prize!
