April has arrived, and the crisp air hints of change. A time that invites us to explore new beginnings and possibilities that lie ahead.
March 20 kicked off the first of our six-week spring children’s programs at Dalton Community Library. MarkieAnn from the Office of Environmental Sustainability aided us in transforming milk cartons into usable bird feeders. The children learned about the importance of recycling. It was well attended and enjoyed by all who participated.
The Spring Children’s programming will be held at 4 p.m. every Thursday until April 24. The Young Adult group will immediately follow at 5 p.m.
To celebrate National Library Week, DCL will host a special program on Bailey Hollow and Dalton – A History, presented by Bill Guest at 5 p.m. April 4. Please call the library for reservations.
The DCL’s Spring Annual Book and Bake Sale will be held from noon to 2 p.m. April 26. We will not be taking any more donations until May. This gives us time to prepare for the sale and clean up after. Please stop by on the 26th and find a tasty baked good or interesting book or two that might interest you.
