Month: July 2018

The library will be closed Tuesday, July 31, for the annual St. Boniface Parish picnic.  Please feel free to use our parking lot and head across the street to the church grounds to enjoy a delicious fried chicken dinner, quilt bingo, raffles, games and cold drinks!  Dinner is served beginning at 3:30 in the air-conditioned cafeteria, while quilt bingo begins outside at 6:30.

Even though our special events of the summer reading program have ended (check out all the great photos on our Facebook page), don’t forget you can keep reading and earning prizes through the end of July.  Twelve youngsters have already completed all their goals and earned all 5 prizes.  You can too!  Keep reading, have someone take your picture while reading and keep your skills sharp.  The first day of school is right around the corner.

The last event of this summer’s “Reading Takes You Everywhere” program will be Saturday, July 14 at 10am.  Mad Science of St. Louis will be here with their Up, Up and Away show, all about air and motion.  They’ll bring a hovercraft, a mini hot air balloon and lots of silly, crazy science experiments.  Everyone who comes will win an attendance prize and we have some great ones, from St. Louis cardinals tickets, jigsaw puzzles and reusable drink bottles to a handmade fleece throw.
