Getting Ready to Catch the Beat .....

Hello Library Friends!
I am so sorry I haven't posted anything new here in a while .... been VERY busy finishing up a couple of courses this semester and planning for LOTS of fun activities, programs and events for this Summer! The 2007 theme for the statewide Summer Library Adventure is "Catch the Beat at Your Library!" I will be updating this blog, with all the info over the next few weeks, so please keep checking back! Fliers with a complete schedule will be sent home with all students at United Parish Preschool and Memorial School in Upton. Registration will officially begin on Tuesday, June 12, at the Library ....
