Westerlo Library Notes for Wednesday, July 3, 2019
The Westerlo Library will be closed on Thursday, July 4, in observance of Independence Day.
Trustees meet
The Westerlo Board of Library Trustees will meet on Monday, July 8, at 7 p.m. in the Hannay Room at the library. This is an open public meeting.
GOP meets
The Town of Westerlo Republican Committee will meet on Tuesday, July 9, at 6 p.m. in the Hannay Room at the library. This is an open public meeting.
Memoir Writing Group
The Memoir Writing Group will meet next Saturday, July 13, at 11 a.m. This group provides its members a safe and supportive place to learn together.
Led by Lila Hollister Smith, the group is open to all who are interested in self-expression through the art of writing. The group meets once a month on the second Saturday of each month and new members are welcome.
Lego Club
Drop in on Monday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. to play and create with Lego. Lego uses play to open up the world of math, science, and cooperative problem-solving to young minds.
The colorful blocks ignite natural curiosity and build confidence as children bring their ideas to life. Miss Lee is also available for homework help.
Story time
Join Miss Lee Wednesday mornings from 11 a.m. to noon for stories, songs, and movement activities designed for infants to children up to 5 years old. In addition to developing pre-reading skills, singing, moving to music, and playing instruments all help foster a sense of rhythm and timing that are essential elements in developing the part of a child’s brain that shapes math skills.
Story times are also a great opportunity to meet other parents of small children in Westerlo.
Technology Walk-In Wednesdays
Do you have a new smartphone or tablet, but don’t know how to download digital materials? Need to brush up on your computer skills — or obtain basic skills?
See Amy on Wednesdays between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. for free, personalized, one-on-one instruction.
