Have
you patiently been waiting to hear that the Kimball Library once again will be
having Felicia Motherway here teaching the annual boxwood tree event? We are
kicking off the holiday season with this ever-popular craft. On Tuesday, December 3rd, 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. It’s also 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 lovely 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.
Have
you patiently been waiting to hear that the Kimball Library once again will be
hosting three Saturdays in a row of our ever popular ‘Holiday Drop ‘n
Shop’? Mark your calendar now for the
following dates and times so you can register your children for December 7, 14,
and 21 from 10:30am-12:30pm. We are definitely “Santa’s Elves” for
your **kids ages 6 and up. We’ll occupy them with fun
activities while you shop or wrap gifts. Each Saturday will host a
different teacher and unique projects. Please send them with simple
snacks and spill-proof beverages. You’ll fa la la la la all the way
home!
**All 'Drop 'n Shop'
participants must be at least 6 years of age to be left in the building without
an adult. Ages 6-9 must have an adult fill out a waiver on that morning
to be left here in our care. Children under 6 must be supervised by the
attending caretaker. Children ages 10 and up are allowed to stay without
an adult or waiver according to library policy. Thank you for your

Details
for the first ‘Holiday Drop ‘n Shop’ on December 7 from 10:30am-12pm are as
follows: On
the first day of ‘Drop ‘n Shop’ the elves have whispered to me... “Let's
make some festive Christmas crackers!”
Christmas
crackers hold paper crowns, a riddle or joke, and are filled with
small treats and candies. Christmas crackers are a fun way to decorate your
Christmas table and will surprise your family! You'll have lots of fun making
these little gifts. Registration is now
available.
If you or your child would like to see a sample of
the Saturday crafts, please drop by the library and see the projects for each
week displayed in advance. Stay tuned here
each week as we keep you informed as to each Saturday event’s details.
