Join percussionist Lori Fithian for "Drummunity!" at the Ruihley Park pavilion on Thursday, June 1st at 11 am.

She'll bring the drums, YOU get to play them!

No experience necessary; FUN for the whole family!

What is it? How does it work?

Cookin' by the Book is a new cooking book club!

Every month, we will each check out a copy of the same cookbook, cook a recipe from that book, and bring what we made to share at the meeting! It's a great way to find good recipes and try new foods! Members will "register" their recipe with the library so the library can make sure we're not all cooking the same thing. 

When is it happening?

Our next meetup is Thursday, October 26th from 7-8 pm in the Community Room. 

What cookbook are we using?

There are two ways to participate in our Summer Reading Program: by reading minutes or attending events.
