We are Still Here!

Hello, Happy New Year to all. We are still here at the Raymond Library and working hard. I've invited our CAP Youth Interns to be contributors to our blog. So be prepared for some really happening stuff in the coming weeks!!!

Summer Reading Club 2008

Once again we would like to thank the Raymond Lions Club for providing funding for our TD Summer Reading Club. This year we are pleased to also partner with the Raymond Parent Link Centre. The program runs from July 7, 2008 to August 21, 2008 at the following times:

Children 0-6 meet at the Parent Link Centre on Tuesdays and Thursdays along with their parent/caregiver from 10:00 to 12:00

Children 7 - 12 meet at the Library on Mondays thru Thursdays from 1:30 to 3:30.

Parents may register their children at the Library or at the Parent Link Centre.

Family Night @ the Library

Friday, June 20th, 2008 at 6:00 p.m. - Laugh out Loud during Family Night @ the Library introducing the Summer Reading Club theme "Laugh Out Loud" and featuring Lynne Hunter-Johnston's Laughter fitness Club.

"Yes, Laughter is a fitness program! Experience its benefits for your physical and emotional health. It positively effects your cardiovascular and respiratory systems, insulin levels and moods. Discover the solid research that proves you can no longer be serious and stay healthy! Learn about Laughter Clubs now spread all over the world - even Oprah has featured them."

April Displays

This month we have an adorable display of procelain birds in our curio cabinet. They are made by a local artist, Rita Olson. Rita has her own kiln, so she makes her creations all on her own. They will be on display until June.

We also have had a permanent display of 3D puzzles donated to the library. Our patron's favourite seems to be the Missisppi Steam Boat. Of course, the little girls just love Cinderella's castle.
