Fall StoryWalk

October 16, 2025 /

The pool is closed but our Fall 2025 StoryWalk is up! Check out the new playground equipment or visit the Memorial Park Fitness Trail. While you are there, be sure to enjoy We Are Definitely Human by X. Fang

When three mysterious visitors from “Europe” crash-land in Mr. Li’s field, he does what any good host would: he invites them back to his farmhouse and offers to help fix up their “car”. No, there’s nothing strange about these guests at all. Just like other humans, they “make business”, “play sportsball” and “wear hat”. As the townsfolk also come to the aid of the visitors and the gathering turns into a little party, interplanetary relations reach an all-time high.

Learn more about StoryWalks and get some ideas for additional activities.

October Classics Book Club

October 14, 2025 /

Join us Tuesday, October 28, 2025 at 2:00 p.m. when we discuss Carrie by Stephen King

Unpopular at school and subjected to her mother’s religious fanaticism at home, Carrie White does not have it easy. But while she may be picked on by her classmates, she has a gift she’s kept secret since she was a little girl: she can move things with her mind. Doors lock. Candles fall. Her ability has been both a power and a problem. And when she finds herself the recipient of a sudden act of kindness, Carrie feels like she’s finally been given a chance to be normal. She hopes that the nightmare of her classmates’ vicious taunts is over . . . but an unexpected and cruel prank turns her gift into a weapon of horror so destructive that the town may never recover.

Ask at the desk for a copy of this horror classic.
