Family film
On Aug. 6, at 6:45 p.m., come to the library and enjoy Hiccup a Viking teenager who aspires to hunt dragons, but doesn't exactly fit in with his tribe's longstanding tradition of heroic dragon slayers.

No registration is necessary and the popcorn is free.
Kundalini Yoga
On Aug. 7 and 21, from 5 to 6:15 p.m., join us for Kundalini Yoga.

Tea party
On Aug. 8, at 1 p.m., the library invites you to the Mother/Daughter American Girl Tea Party. Step back in time as we dig into the world of American Girl, Samantha Parkington. Bring your dolls (It does not have to be an America Girl Doll!) and your mom to the library where we'll talk about what it was like to be a girl in 1904. You'll make a Victorian craft and a calling card to bring to the Best House where we'll have our tea party. Girls and Moms will meet Mrs. Best, enjoy lemonade and cookies and have a personal tour of the house. Each girl will go home with a goodie bag. This program is part of our Dig into Reading Summer Reading Program and is open to girls going into grades 2 through 6. Registration is required.
Dinner and a movie
On Aug. 9, at 5:30 p.m., the library is showing The Hobbit rated PG-13. We’ll uncover one of the greatest stories ever written as we watch the movie The Hobbit.
