Get Your Mystery Movie Tickets!

Hi everyone!

Sorry I haven't updated in a little while - I was on vacation but now am back to it!

The tickets to our mystery movie are going already, and if you want to have some free pizza and see a smash hit movie on our library big screen, get your tickets soon! The movie is rated PG-13, so those 13 and under will have to have the permission of their parents to attend. When you pick up your tickets, you can find out what the movie is!

The event will be held Thursday, April 23, at 11AM. It's 100% free, but limited to 30 participants!

And tell your parents that registration for the adult cooking competition is now open!!

Peace,
Dan Barbour
Young Adult Librarian

How Much Do You Save By Using the Library?

Hi there! I found this really fascinating calculator that estimates how much you spend per visit at the library. You can plug in the various items you get per visit, and then see how much you are saving by having your library card!

Check out how much you spend, and then post a comment with the amount in the comments section (you can do this without posting your name or joining blogger!)
