Your library provides you with access to digital awareness, learning opportunities, a safe space and a retreat from the hustle and bustle of the every day world. It offers a summer reading program for the children and programs for the adult patron. It is the hub of a small community and an invaluable resource for all its residents.
The Writers Group continues on Wednesdays at 1 p.m. and welcomes new members always.
New to our library is Jojo Moyes Someone Else’s Shoes. Place your hold to-day on Trapac.ab.ca or TRACpac app for Spare by Prince Harry, Mad Honey by Jodi Picoult, and World of Curiosities by Louise Penny. Lynda, our librarian, posts a list of the most popular books offered by Tracpac each month on the bulletin board at the village office.
A reminder again of our May 6 Highway Clean up. This is our most important fund raiser of the year and believe it or not, it is a fun one! And even treasures are found. We would appreciate more volunteers.
A book you will enjoy is The Sweetness of Waters by Nathan Harris, an award winning author and an Oprah pick. The prose is breathtaking, the plot riveting. It is the story of the life and and difficult times in the aftermath of the American Civil War. The characters will stay with you forever.
