The stuffies want to go camping! Read stories, sing songs, and leave your stuffed toy at the library for an overnight campout. Pick up your stuffed animal the next day and see photos of their adventures. What will they be up to when everyone is sleeping? Space is limited; registration is required for each child in attendance.

Practice your skills or pick up a new one as we work through our mending projects together.

We will have some basic materials and books to help get you started with a variety of visible mending techniques.

Kids will love this puppet show from Dragon Theater Puppets and Princesses! The Ringmaster tries to have the greatest circus on the earth. But everything goes wrong, the elephants keep falling over, the lion is on the loose and the clowns run amuck. But the show must go on. They must find a way to renew and repeat the acts correctly. In the end they will find out how to recycle and save the circus. 

The number of photos we take and can store using our smartphones increases every year. But what happens when you reach the limits of what you can save on your phone? Cloud based storage is a convenient way to move images from your phone’s internal storage to an internet based account with more capacity. If you’re new to cloud storage or could use a refresher, this introductory class may be just the thing for you.
