After-School Hangout In-Person
Stop by the Library every Wednesday after school! We will provide a drop-in craft and a light snack. Participants will also have access to our collection of board games and game computers. Our regular computers will also be available to students that have a library card and have been previously granted computer access by a parent/guardian. Students can also use this time to browse our collection of books, ask staff any questions about our reading materials and checkout items to take home. (Checkout is only available to children who have a library card in good standing.) Children in grades K - 6th are welcome! Registration is required.
*Parents: Please make sure you send a note into school stating the dates your children are signed up for after-school programs, otherwise they will be sent home on the bus and miss our program*
