October Events at Your Library

Join us for a drive thru Trunk Or Treat!

We will be joined by members of the community to set up stations in our parking lot for you to drive thru and receive tons of fun goodies -- including children's BOOKS. The Library will be giving away free books to each car as well as a special treat. Swing by anytime between 3 PM and 7 PM!

Many film and TV productions are being made in Georgia. Peg and Tom Thon have many years experience in theater, TV, and films. On Monday, October 9, 12:00pm - 1:00pm, they will share their knowledge and insights and show you how to use your current occupation and personal skills to get work in the industry, both in front and behind the camera. Drinks will be provided and the public is encouraged to bring a sack lunch if they would like.
