Bookmobile Route for Thursday--revised

Thursday route needs some tweaks for safe parking without blocking the road!  Still starting at 12:00pm and running approximately 10 minutes between stops.

 Here's the adjusted stops:
1) Christopher Manor apartments--I'll drive slowly to the back, then up through to be as close to the road as I can without being a problem.
2)  BergeronWay/Lower Collins (Fowler's Court is just too narrow!)
3) The west entrance of Viola Circle
4) 284/South Main (the abandoned parking lot)
5) The Rand Church by Stan's Way
6) Veteran's Memorial Park--the parking strip by the ball field.
7) Trinity United Parish--Folly Mill is just too narrow all the way through, but that's still reasonable walking distance
8) Lakeshore Drive--again, no good place to stop and sit, but I'll just drive through that whole neighborhood really slowly.

June 29-July3 for Kids at the Library

Greetings!
Welcome to the summer reading program "Every Hero Has a Story!"  :)  Here's what's going on this coming week:

Monday, 12pm: Sandwiches & Stories (all ages, drop in). Bring your picnic lunch to the library!  While you eat, Paula will read stories.  When you're done, she will have an activity/game or a craft for you to do.

Tuesday,3-5pm: Be a Hero--NHSPCA Crafts.  Stop in to make toys and treats for the animals at the NHSPCA.  This is also your first chance to sign up for the NHSPCA Field Trip (details below).

Wednesday, 6pm: SUPER AMAZING SING-ALONG WITH STEVE BLUNT!! You don't want to miss this oh-so-much-fun musician.  Really you don't.

The library is CLOSED on Friday--go watch fireworks :)

The NHSPCA Field trip: I will be leading a caravan to the Stratham SPCA on Tuesday, July 7.  We'll meet at the library at 3pm and roll out ASAP.  I am not allowed to take anyone in my car--library policy--but I am really hoping that some of you will have an extra seat or two to share.  If you do, please let me know and I will keep a list--I will only give your information to a person who asks for a ride and needs the number of seats you have available.  SIGN-UPS for the field trip will not begin until June 30.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

"Every Hero Has a Story!" Summer Reading Program

Greetings!
The summer reading program--Every Hero Has a Story!--is about to begin!

The simplest way to explain everything is to say, "Be here on June 25 at 3:30".  That's the Kickoff Party: There will be cake, at least one animal to pet, a story, and your first chance to sign children up for "Every Hero Has a Story".  However, if you can't make it that day, it's ok--you can sign kids up any time after that.  You don't have to do anything before the party: just show up!  Everyone's invited :)

Program basics: You can come to the library whenever you want.  Children can read whatever they want.  I will provide everything you need in order to participate.

I do still need a couple people to help out with the Kickoff Party: I have  people for refreshments, but I'll need two more--one to hand out sign up slips and pencils, one to give out bags for completed slips.  Easy and painless, I promise :)

Questions?  Call 474-2044 and ask for Lisa or email lbricker@sealib.org and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Thank you and see you soon!
Lisa

Fizz! Boom! Read! Kickoff Party

Let the summer begin! Cake and animals for everyone! Kids (and their adults) are invited to the summer reading program--you'll find out everything you need to know and have a chance to sign up to win prizes and attend cool programs. The NHSPCA will attend with a furry friend (no, I don't know what it is!) and the Food Pantry will send a representative to explain what they do. Laura Litcofsky, of "That's Very Fun" is generously providing our cake :) You don't have to sign up for the party---the party is so that you can sign up for the summer!
