Summer Reading “Oceans of Possibilities’ is now officially wrapped up for another year, and the Summer Concert Series is sadly closed for another season as of September 1st. We’d like to give an enormous special thank you to the Friends of the Kimball Library for all their fundraising and support of summer reading and programs all year round. We’d also like to give another shout out to The George Family Charities who graciously donated the funds for the summer concert series. We are so very thankful to both these special groups of people who give so much to the Library and in turn enrich all our lives!
HOMEWORK CLUB: This popular club
has returned, and now it is on Thursdays at 3:15. Kids in grades 1-5 are
invited to come to the Library to study with us! We will work on our homework
until 3:45 and then open up the Craft Barn for some STEAM toy fun!
Parents,
please note that while we will try to help your child if asked, we are not
tutors. We are simply offering a quiet space for kids to work. Children who do
not have homework are expected to read quietly for the duration of homework
time.
Children may take the bus from Atkinson Academy to
the Library if parents make arrangements with pick-up patrol. (The Library is
not taking responsibility for the transportation, we are only letting you know
that there is a bus that stops here.) Please pack them a snack that they can
have before 3:30.
*Parents MUST let the Library know of any changes to
the drop off/pick up routine OR if their child is not attending the class*.
RELIEVING
NECK, SHOULDER, & BACK PAIN: Relieving muscle
pain is all about knowing the root cause.
Pills may mask the pain, but not address the solution. When you know why and where the pain starts,
then you have the power to take effective action that decreases the pain.
Register to join us on September 8 from 6:00 to 7:30.
Join us as Elizabeth Gallien, Licensed Massage
Therapist introduces and demonstrates ways to relieve neck, shoulders and back
pain with stretching. Elizabeth will demonstrate both upper and lower body
stretches will provide you the opportunity to try out the exercises out
yourself. The upper body stretches may be conducted from a standing or sitting
position. The lower body stretches are conducted on the floor. If you wish to
try them out, please bring a yoga mat or beach blanket to lay on, and a standard
size pillowcase, and wear comfortable clothing. There are modifications to
exercises which she will discuss. You may elect to watch and try them at home.
RADON DETECTOR: We have a new addition to
our Library of Things, a digital radon detector. The radon test kit is for home
use so people can discover whether they are being impacted by radon and have
the opportunity to do something about it.
You can put this cool device on hold in the catalog.
This digital radon detector is a highly accurate device that is simple to
use and easy to understand. It is battery operated, making it easy to move to
different rooms or buildings. You can enter your measurements online and
receive a printable report. Within 24 hours you will see the first indication
of your radon levels. Track levels over long periods for more accuracy.
HOLIDAY HOURS: Please take note
that the Library will be closed for Labor Day weekend, September 3-5. Stock up
accordingly. As always, Libby, Kanopy, and Hoopla are open 24/7 with a Kimball
Library card in good standing.
