FAMILY
YOGA:
Join Balancing Bear Yoga here at the library on Tuesday, November 5th,
at 6:00 PM for a 45 minute yoga class for you and your child to discover the
magic of yoga through games, music, movement, breathing and more. You and your
child will connect with each other, socialize with local families, and have
fun! The class will be led by Kelsey Iani, RYT 200.
Adults with children are welcome - Moms, dads or other
caregivers! No yoga experience needed. The class content is geared toward
children ages 3 to 7 although all children are welcome. It is best to have a
one-to-one adult/child ratio.
Please bring one yoga/exercise mat for you and your child to
share. Dress comfortably. Water is also recommended.
THE CONNECTICUT:
New England’s Great River -- The largest river in New England rises in a
small beaver pond near the Canadian border and flows over 400 miles through
four states, falling 2,670 feet to the sea through America's only
watershed-based national fish and wildlife refuge. Adair Mulligan leads an
armchair tour of this great river in New Hampshire and Vermont, exploring its
history and natural beauty through the seasons and among the communities that
have sprung up along its banks. Next, the discussion will shift to how the
river has influenced the lives of those who live there, and how they, in turn,
have affected the river. Much more than a travelogue, this presentation
explores the many issues involved in managing the health of this major river,
and how citizens from all walks of life have created a vision for its future.
The Presenter: Adair Mulligan has a
runaway curiosity about the natural and cultural history of northern New
England. Author of The Gunstock Parish: A History of Gilford, New Hampshire,
she has also contributed to Proud to Live Here in the Connecticut River Valley;
Where the Great River Rises: An Atlas of the Upper Connecticut River; and
Beyond the Notches: Stories of Place in New Hampshire's North Country.
Executive Director of the Hanover Conservancy, she served for 20 years as
Conservation Director of the Connecticut River Joint Commissions. Mulligan
holds an MA degree from Smith College.
This program is sponsored by the
Friends of the Kimball Library and a grant through the New Hampshire
Humanities. Free and open to the public. Please register to attend this event
happening on Thursday, November 7th, at 6:30 PM.
