CHILL OUT AT THE LIBRARY OPEN HOUSE! 

       Circle Thursday, August the 18^th, on your calendar, because we want you to help us celebrate!  The Mt. Pulaski Library was recently awarded funding in the amount of $4000.00 from the Illinois State Library to upgrade our collection of 900’s. This area includes:  history, geography, travel and biographies - for all ages in a variety of formats.

       To further promote the success of this LSTA grant, the Mt. Pulaski Library is planning an open house on August the 18^th from 5:30 to 7:30.  Families are invited to drop by, browse, and explore these exciting new additions to our collection.  Refreshing ice-cold snow cones and other delicious refreshments will be available.  Also, Janis Hild will be on hand to do some very special storytelling throughout the evening.  Each child that attends will receive a free pass to the Miller Zoo. 

       At 6:30, you are invited to join us for “An Alaskan Cruise”.   Together we will roam the dramatic and beautiful wilderness, climb the remote and rugged mountains and glaciers, and get close to rare and wonderful wildlife.  This exciting adventure will be shown on a 58 inch TV in the basement meeting room - approximately one hour in length. 

       Afterwards, "chill out" with ice cream and a variety of delicious toppings!   This special family oriented program and ice cream party is free!  However, tickets are required if you wish to attend and children under the age of 12 need to be accompanied by an adult.  Please call or drop by the Library if you want to reserve tickets for your family.
