Christmastime in Schoharie @ The Library started with Jody & Her Daughter reading Christmas stories to the kids. Then came the tree ornament craft; big decisions were made about which color to add next... The SCS Elementary Band Ensemble played for alomst an hour...
...which this little reader ignored.
The happiest person was Mrs. Santos, who won the raffle for the Arlene Vrooman "Santa is Coming" quilt!
Sportswriter and children's books author Steve Krasner (yes, the Red Sox Steve Krasner) was here on Veteran's Day to present a writing workshop for kids/parents. I can tell you there was a LOT of enthusiastic "verbal participation" for parts of it, but I trusted the grownups to keep him under control!
Board Trustee Don Quinn was the guest of honor at a Book Launch Party hosted at the Schoharie Library by Friends and Family of the author. Don read from his first hardcover/published book titled "St. Maverick's." Don donated an autographed copy to the Library, so everyone will have a chance to read it. CONGRATULATIONS DON!!!
Classic guitarist Kevin Hubbard serenaded a rapt audience Thursday evening. His newest CD, "Catnip," is available for borrowing and is well worth a listen.
Bring in your beads, your paints, your embellishments longing to be free ...and we will add them to The Pants. They are hanging in the Addition waiting for more attention - there is still some empty space ready to be filled!
