It's that time! Our pop-up Double Good Popcorn fundraiser is live! I'm so excited to buy some popcorn and support the library that I'm using far too many exclaimation points!

My first encounter with Double Good Popcorn was a fundraiser for the field hockey team of one of my friends' daughters. Each kid was raising money to help cover their summer field hockey camp coaches and their team jerseys. The girls killed the fundraiser, and all they had to do was promote it through social media. It was fast, easy, and remarkably efficient. Plus the popcorn was absolutely delicious!

Summer Quest Programming has begun! It's time to check out the "Oceans of Possibilities" happening at NAPL.

Eyes of the Wild will still be joining us at Pavilion A in Municipal Park this coming Thursday, June 23!

However, the program will now start at 7:00 PM!

The company has gone through some changes recently, which has forced them to adjust their commitments. Rather than cancelling on us, they've asked for the program to be pushed back a bit, so they could still keep their commitment to us.

Spread the word, and let's show up in force for their wonderful animal presentation!

Happy Summer Reading!!  This year's theme is Oceans of Possibilities and believe me the possibilities are endless.
