FOR OUR Tisket, a Tasket Basket Fundraiser

Silent Auction Ap. 29^th-May 4^th.

We are looking for donations of anything that would or could be found in a basket! Think Spring, Holidays, Girls Night, Mothers Day, Birthdays…. the sky is the limit! If you don’t want to make a whole basket, even just a basket would be appreciated! We would appreciate receiving the donations no later than April 27th.

The Library has a new display in our case for the month of April.  It is a vintage camera collection on loan to us from Kathy Sletten, who owns Hidden Creek Studio in Kingston.  The cameras date from the early 1900's all the way thru the 2000's.  Kathy will also be giving a class on Tuesday, April 9th, at the library at 6pm on how to get the best picture from your digital camera.  Kathy has also written an e-book titled "Roadside Photography" that can be purchased at Barnes & Noble or Amazon.  If you'd like to take the class, which is free, sign up the next time you are in the library.

Come and join us this Thursday at 4:30 and meet Purdie our new reading dog! We will be reading a short story, making an Easter craft and sharing a snack! Should be fun with Purdie

Just a reminder to everyone that on March 14th at 4:30pm, our READING TOGETHER story hour occurs! Anyone that would like to read their favorite book is welcome to come and share! Bring a blanket, and if you want you can wear your pajama's! There will be popcorn to enjoy while each child reads his/her favorite story! We do ask that the story not be longer than 5 minutes to ensure that everyone gets a chance to read. Is your child too young to read? Well, parents are welcome to read too!! Come and enjoy the fun! The kids are very excited! See you then!

February and NASCAR at the Mill Pond Library

February in Florida means NASCAR Racing has started for another year. At the Kingston Mill Pond Library this month, thanks to part of a collection owned by Duwane Marwitz, you will find some NASCAR diecast cars and memorabilia on display.  Most of his collection is of the late Dale Earnhardt Sr.
