We had to postpone our Kiss the Ground! program this week because of bad weather. It has been rescheduled for Thursday, March 12, at 6 p.m. We will have a reminder closer to time for the event.
There will be a family movie at the library on Tuesday, Feb. 25, at 4:30 p.m. Free popcorn and water. Call the library for the title--(706) 657-7857.
Our Book Club met last week and discussed Into Thin Air! The takeaway from our group seemed to be that none of us would be climbing Mount Everest and we don’t know why anyone would. Of course, that’s the great thing about books. We can experience things vicariously that we would not want to experience firsthand.
Our next book is The Guardians by John Grisham. We will meet on Tuesday, March 17, to discuss it. Book Club members: The library will have extra copies of The Guardians for checkout.
The Dade County Historical Society will meet at the library on Saturday, Feb. 29, at 10:30 a.m. This is for their quarterly business meeting.
Do you have a genealogy or local history question you need help with? The historical society has volunteers who come to the library regularly. We have forms at the desk that you can write down the details of your question and leave your contact information and they will see if they can help you with it. If it’s more convenient, you may even call the library and they will take your information by phone and leave your request for a volunteer to check.
At our Ready-to-Read program on Thursday, March 5, we will be celebrating the birthday of Dr. Seuss, which is always a fun day. Bring your preschoolers and join us.
The CloverBuds will meet on Tuesday, March 10, at 5 p.m. at the library. They will be doing some tie-dye activities at this meeting.
