What other month delivers so much entertainment as May? Memories and celebrations abound: Cinco de Mayo on the 5th, full moon on the 6th, graduations (Battle Creek on the 13th), Mother’s Day on the 14th, and Memorial Day on the 29th! That is a lot of action for a beautiful start to summer.

With summer comes baseball games, picnics, and summer reading.  Summer reading sign up begins here on Friday, May 26 and continues until the activities start in June. Our theme is all about ‘building’: building communities, building new reading fun, and enjoying a new way to learn. Our speaker, Curtis Mork, will entertain us with his Lego skills in June. Watch for more updates about June and July.
