The Problem

Local children lament 'there's nothing to do here', especially in the summer months. We have had multiple incidents of vandalism in town recently. Our youth need a more engaging affordable variety of activities to choose from, especially in the realm of the creative arts as there are always plenty of offerings for athletic kids who are interested in sports to participate in.

Our Plan

Every year we offer a free library collaborative summer reading group with activities and programs. This year we are planning an arts & creativity focused summer reading program. Our 2025 goal is to have larger range of non-toxic and earth friendly art supplies for use especially during the summer months. We have reached out to the community to ask for donations of their unwanted/excess arts and crafts items.
