This morning at Preschool Storytime & Movement we read “The Luckiest St. Patrick’s Day Ever!” before singing our regular songs. After that, everyone got to decorate a shamrock and we wrapped up our time together by enjoying some green frosted treats!
Remember that next week the library will be participating in this year’s annual “Raise the Region” online giving campaign! This gives members of our community the opportunity to support local nonprofits by helping them raise as much money as possible during a small window of time.
