Seeing the snow this morning brought winter activities to mind. The library would love to have snowshoes to check out next winter. Just imagine families headed into the town forest to enjoy the trails on snowshoes. So, we are looking for your unused snowshoes. If you have any snowshoes that are in good shape that you don’t want anymore, please donate them to the library for the snowshoe project. Simply bring them to the front desk. Thank you!
