The summer reading program will be held from 3-4pm, June 23, in the Junior Room. Come meet Captain Silversword, a friendly pirate who will entertain the group with creative balloon twisting! Kids will also hear pirate poetry, make a treasure map, and look at gold nuggets under a microscope. This program is for children ages 6-10. For more information, call the library at 837-2621.

Thank you to all of our very generous friends for helping us raise the funds which resulted in a matching grant from the M.S. Doss Foundation of $10,000 for the new library!
If we weren’t in the library at the moment, we would be cheering so loud you could hear us in Terlingua. Instead we are doing a giant “happy dance”.
If you would like to see the building’s interior progress check our bulletin board at the library or visit our web page: http://alpinepubliclibrary.org/donate/donate.htm
Opening day will be in October! Let the count down begin…
