Voorheesville Library Notes for Friday, December 27, 2013
On Monday, Dece. 30, at 1 p.m., join us at the Voorheesville Public Library to watch Planes. Enjoy the big screen, munch some popcorn and watch as a crop-dusting airplane, with a fear of heights, lives his dream of competing in an around-the-world race. This film is rated PG with some mild action and rude humor.
Meet Archivist Jim Corsaro
Jim Corsaro is available two days each week to help anyone interested in using the library’s local history and archival collections. In the coming year, he will be presenting talks about historical records and how to care for them. Call the library and ask for him if you have family papers, business records, or organization proceedings that you would like to preserve or are considering donating to the library.
Circle Time
Miss Amy’s Circle Time is a special program for preschool children aged 3 to 4 offered on the second Monday of every month. Join Miss Amy for a structured, themed story time that will include introduction to the calendar and weather observation as well as songs, fingerplays, stories and a follow-up craft. Our next Circle Time will be Jan. 13, at 10:15 a.m.
