INDEPENDENCE DAY ACTIVITIES
The library will be closed for Independence Day next Thursday, July 4. However, we will have a booth at Park Day where we will GIVE AWAY cotton candy. We will start at approximately 9:00 a.m. and spin cotton until the demand is filled or we run out of floss. Come see us at the park!
