A Break and a Party!

Summer is upon us, and school is letting out! What will you do with your kids? Just an FYI, we’ll still be having storytimes during the summer. Boardwalk will take a hiatus from May 22nd to June 5th, but then we’ll be resuming for a summer full of storytelling, crafts, movies, and songs. Check out our storytime schedule, sign up for Summer Reading Program, and check out our other programs. And, it’s all free!!

July Blood Drive at Boardwalk

On Thursday, July 5th from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., the Boardwalk Branch will be hosting a blood drive for the Red Cross.

The Red Cross does not need blood— PATIENTS do. Every two seconds, someone in America gets a blood transfusion; Every TWO SECONDS! Five million patients will need blood this year. Please help us to help patients in need by signing up for your appointment right here at the Boardwalk Branch to have your blood drawn.

The American Red Cross asks the following of a donor:

For the Love of Crock-Pots

Do you love something? I am kind of at the age where I don’t love too many things. I love my family and friends, but I’ve reached the stage when I know loving people is where my heart is and getting attached to materialistic things doesn’t matter; well not too much, unless we’re talking crock-pots.
