Earth Week

Celebrate Earth Week

Monday, April 22, 2013 – Monday, April 29, 2013

Celebrate Earth Week at the Library with a full line-up of events! We have something for everyone – families, kids & teens, and adults. If you are a bird lover, river enthusiast, or green shopper, we’ve got you covered.

As a bonus, all of our pre-reading classes for kids will be celebrating earth week with special books and activities. And if you’re in the mood for some fresh books, movies, music, or video games then you might want to pop into West Leonard or Yankee Clipper to participate in their Book & Media Swaps. Drop off something you no longer need or want and pick up something new!
