Thank you all for coming to pumpkin carving on Wednesday! We tried a new way to carve pumpkins. You have to try this! I have cookie cutter shapes that you pound into the cleaned pumpkin. Quick, easy and make pretty cute faces. Stop in and check some out at the Coggon library.

Where did the summer go?! Have you looked at the calendar lately? October 1st is this Thursday! Halloween is not far away! Ghosts, goblins, pumpkins and chocolate! What's not to love!?
Adult craft (age 12 and up) at the library this month. Come in and make a porch leaner. One side can be Halloween and the other side Christmas. See pictures. These are done with stencils and take some time to complete. Come in anytime during regular library hours. Stencils and paints provided. There is a $10.00 fee for the board. Please let me know if you are interested so
I have materials available.

As summer draws to an end I want to thank everyone who came to summer activity hour at the Coggon Library. Thank you parents for bringing your kids and helping to make everything go smoothly. As a one person library I could not have done it without you! And kids thanks for coming and being so well behaved. I had a lot of fun every Friday and hope you did too.
Please let me know what activities you enjoyed and give me ideas for next year.
Have a great school year and be kind to everyone!
