Rhythm and Drumming

Today we were fortunate to have Ed Keegan of Rhythm Connect in Fairport, teach a drumming and rhythm workshop. It was a bit noisy for a library, but hey, it's summer!







Some of the kids were very seriously discovering their untapped talents, but many just had happy smiles!

Animals!!

Yesterday we were fortunate to have John and Rose Crocitto of CroZoo, Zoological Educational Services, come and bring their "World of Amphibians and Reptiles" to our library. We had a full house, who all enjoyed seeing and touching the many creatures, including a bearded dragon, a blue tongued skink and a very large millipede!

Caricature Drawing

Ed Fortuna, one of our area's talented artists, graciously held another workshop with the kids this summer. This time it was caricature drawing - making those we love look a little exaggerated and silly. Look at those smiles!

Pete the Pirate

Thanks to A Barrel of Fun Productions, Pete the Pirate brought his Sea Faring Folly Show to visit us today. There was singing, puppets and magic. What more could we ask for on a soggy afternoon!!!

Scrapbooking

Our summer fun continued Thursday with Scrapbooking. Kathy Roberts generously agreed to help the kids make a scrapbook out of paperbags. What a clever idea! And everyone went home with a work of art and their memories.

Nate & Kate's Kids Show

On Wednesday we were visited by Nate and Kate Marshall who performed their musical juggling show for us in the community room. They even let some of the kids help with their performance.

Afterward, our Wacky Wednesday kids were treated to a juggling workshop!

There were lots of smiles!!!!!!

Summer Fun

Our summer reading program has gotten off to a slow but enthusiastic start. That's what happens when your opening day is considered a holiday by many, and a heat wave hits that makes everyone want to stay home in their pool. But those who came had a great time, and that's what's important.

The heat kept many of our budding geocachers home, but the more adventurous showed up and had fun. Thanks to Phil Klingler for continuing to do this every year, even in the heat, bugs and poison ivy!

Adult Craft Night

Our Thursday craft night for adults, made possible by a grant from the Friends of the Macedon Library, has been continuing to run smoothly. We now have a new grant administrator who will bring even more creative people and ideas to our community. Please welcome Sharon Lockemeyer and give her lots of support and encouragement for her bravery in taking on this project!!!!

Our next project will have Denny Brunner of ArborArt Senior Workshops returning with this beautiful and handy Herb Plant Stand.
The workshop will be held Thursday evenings, July 15 and July 29, 2010 from 6:00 - 7:45, and the cost will be $5.00 which will include all materials
