Remember your commitment!
For those who are taking advantage of the ‘Universal Class’ link on our
website, please know that this particular service will be discontinued by the
end of this calendar year. This should
serve as a great impetus to get back to class and finish up so you can earn
your certificate of completion. Ready, set, go!
Remember
Gwendolyn! Enjoy a fun-filled afternoon for the budding dancers and story
lovers in your family on Tuesday, November 27th at 4:30 PM when ballerinas from
The European School of Dancing take center stage at the Kimball Library,
Atkinson, NH. Author David Ira Rottenberg will read his lovely picture book, Gwendolyn,
the Graceful Pig, while the dancers perform the story. As an added treat, a
mini-movement lesson will be offered to the children in the audience after the
performance and Rottenberg will sign copies of his book which will be available
for purchase. This author/dance event is
free. All ages can relate to overcoming
obstacles and pursuing what you love. Bring
your cameras for great photo opportunities with the ballerinas or the author.
Remember Hawke! Lady Hawke, a loveable black Lab, is a
certified reading therapy dog with Therapy Dogs International. She is gentle with children of all ages and
her next visit is Tuesday, November 20th, from 4-5pm. We need YOU (emerging readers or any readers)
to come and read to Lady Hawke! She’s
waiting to hear some great stories, and only you can help! Please come, bring your favorite book, or
borrow one of ours, and spend some time reading to our friend, Hawke.
Please register for this event. If
no one registers she will not come.
Remember your tummy! Are
you feeling a little peckish? Just sit
back and relax because kids are cooking on Monday, November 19th,
from 4:30-5:30pm. Register your children
in grades 3 to 5. Kids are invited to learn
some new habits for the kitchen and to have fun cooking together. This month on the menu is Chinese fried rice
so perhaps it is time to practice with the chopsticks! The fun is in the making
and in the eating. Enrollment is limited
so do not delay your registration.
Remember that December is
right around the corner! We are kicking
off the holidays with the ever-popular and crafty Felicia Motherway. On Tuesday, December 4, from 6-8pm it is your
night to learn how to make a beautiful fresh boxwood tree to enjoy for the
holidays. The boxwood tree is an elegant design made out of boxwood and
decorated with velvet ribbon, gold glass balls, berries and natural gypsophila.
This popular centerpiece will last for months and is perfect for your home or
for those who want a small holiday tree to enjoy. This also is a great gift idea. Even the ‘craft-impaired’ will
leave with a tree that looks like it was featured in Better Homes &
Gardens. Felicia does not let anyone
leave without a perfect looking tree. Reservations are required as the class is
limited to 20 people. Materials fee of $30.00 must be paid in advance in
order for your registration to be secure. Please
sign up at the circulation desk. Phone
registrations will not be accepted.
Remember
that we will be closed for Thanksgiving and the following day (November 22-23). We will be open on Saturday, November 24. Please stock up and plan accordingly.
