Remember, Dick Meunier (the one with the boots and shovel) will be presenting a program on composting this Wednesday, May 22, at 7pm, here at the library!  Pass the word to people you know who may be interested!  Hope to see you there!

We were saddened to hear of the passing of our wonderful long-term patron Vivienne Grant this past Sunday. Vivienne taught in area schools for many years, and we librarians still hear stories from our patrons about what a wonderful teacher she was. She was always gracious to us when she visited the library and to our volunteers who in more recent years delivered books for us to her in her home. On the occasion of the 70th wedding anniversary of Vivienne and her husband Russell, their family remembered them by donating funds to the library for new materials. Our sympathy to all her family.

Did you miss the Brad and Wina concerts?  They are available on DVD!  You can check out either the 2011 or the 2013 performances.  Since one of the concerts on each disc is for kids, we decided to put them in the children’s DVD’s.  Check one out today!

Dick Meunier, Master Composter. Has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? Dick is working toward that title, and part of his work is on display at the library for the month of May. Come and take a look. If you’d like to learn more about it, Dick will be doing a program about “Composting at Home” on Wednesday, May 22, at 7pm, here at the library. We hope you can join us!
