Myers Memorial Library Events

Just a couple quick things.

1. We are having a special craft night next Monday, Jan 28 at 6:30 to make valentines for the Frewsburg Rest Home residents.  We have used the “love letter” card pattern from Pack-o-Fun/ Crafts ‘n Things for the last few years.  The pattern in this year’s issue is a “hoppy dat” frog. A sample is displayed in the library.  We hope you can come and help us make these.  In the past we have needed approximately 70 cards so we can really use your help.  All materials are supplied.

2. The Big Read this year is Jack London’s Call of the Wild. The Big Read is designed to encourage individuals and communities to read and discuss a literary book. Last year’s was works by Edgar Allen Poe.  Call of the Wild is the book for our February discussion which will be at 6:30 in the community room.  We have SEVERAL newspaper-format copies of the book so please stop by to pick up your copy to read and enjoy.

Hope you are able to participate in one, if not both, of these activities.

Town of Carroll Comprehensive Plan Survey

The Town of Carroll is in the process of developing a new Town of Carroll Comprehensive Plan. They would like input from as many as possible. This survey is not limited to just Town of Carroll residents. Question 3 asks if we reside in Town of Carroll, own a business in Town of Carroll, work in the Town of Carroll, own property in the Town of Carroll, or Other.

I encourage all of you to participate by completing the survey on the Town of Carroll Community Planning website http://www.carrollplan.com/Home_Page.php. Paper surveys are available here at the library as well as the Town Hall, Frewsburg Pharmacy and some other Frewsburg “downtown” locations.   Thank you for participating in this survey.
