Book/movie program

Just In:  Multiple copies of “Revolutionary Road” for the next program and potluck discussion. They are here at the library for the taking.  I’m hoping to schedule the movie and dinner/ book discussion towards the end of summer. Watch for an exact date.  This year the movie will be shown at the Lake Theater for the regular admission price of five dollars.

Could we do two programs this summer?  There will be a new movie based on Dennis Lehane’s “Shutter Island” opening in October. I would love to do that for a program in the fall!  Other ideas?

Winter beauty

… sometimes makes tough sledding. On snowy winter nights, please call ahead to make sure we are open. We are thinking of the safety of our staff and patrons along those icy and slippery roads. We apologize for any inconvenience.
