May Days

Well, despite our frantic endeavors to explain our recent cold weather with volcanic ash theories, May is still its charming, sunny self, even though temperatures are raw. Sign ups are now available for:
- A Visit from the Tooth Fairy on Tuesday, May 25 at 10:30 a.m.  She wears a pink dress, she carries a sparkly wand; she will tell your children all about good hygiene habits and pass out gifts.  Stop by!
- Teddy Bear Picnic on Sunday, May 23 at 2:30 p.m. When was the last time your favorite stuffed animal had an outing?  Bring your bear to the Library for games, songs, and a craft. You'll have a bear-y good time!
