Westerlo Library Notes for Thursday, September 20, 2018

The Westerlo Board of Library Trustees will hold a special workshop meeting on Monday, Sept. 24, at 7 p.m. at the library. This is an open public meeting.

Library Expedition

Love to visit libraries?  Join the Expedition! Visit as many of the 36 unique libraries in Upper Hudson Library System as you can during September, October and November.

It’s a self-guided tour; road trip to our libraries as a family or a team of friends. Or go solo, and enjoy the journey to our intriguing library destinations on your own.

You’ll earn prizes when you’ve visited 5, 15, 25, and 36 locations. Visit them all and become a 36er!

Get started by picking up a map at our library (or any Upper Hudson library) – and you’ve already knocked one off the list.

Lego Club

Drop in on Monday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. to play and create with Lego. We supply the blocks; you bring the imagination.  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 five 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.
