Did you save the date for Kimball Library’s HALLOWEEN FEST taking part on Friday, October 30th from 5:30-8pm? Fun will be rolled out in the form of a haunted hay ride, face painting, and donuts on a string. Prizes ($10) will be awarded for the costume competition for pre-school, grades 1-5, grades 6-8, grades 9-12 and adult, in each category. Also, special awards will be given for the best pumpkin at each age level so BYOP (bring your own pumpkin) already decorated and ready to enter! There will be raffles, a costume parade, cider and donuts. There will also be ‘revenge of the teen librarian’ who will gleefully stripe kids hair while supplies last. Sound like fun? There’s more! Come by and see. You know you want to and the kids will clamor until you do.
Are you clamoring to be energy efficient? The Atkinson Energy Committee is hosting a fair in the Kimball Library’s large meeting room on Saturday, November 6th, from 9am-12pm. Now is the time to conserve. Now is the time to mark the date. Stay tuned for more detailed information in upcoming articles.
Have you registered for the new and upcoming ‘Folk Art’ workshop? It’s that time of year to come and paint a decorative wooden tray with a peaceful snow scene for your holiday parties or to give as a gift. There is definitely a little bit of ‘craft’ in all of us. This two-session folk art painting workshop is taught by Ellen Witherell on November 14 and November 21 from 10:30am to 1pm and is offered by the Friends of the Kimball Library. These classes are for beginners and intermediates, and instruction will include basic acrylic painting, highlighting and shading. The $30 cost includes most supplies. Space in the class is very limited, but a check made out to ‘Friends of Kimball Library’ will reserve your seat and kit. For information and registration, call Carolyn Birr at the library (603) 362-5234 or Ellen Witherell at (603) 362-5655.
