Library Happenings

 

November 30, 2022

By Jean Markert, La Conner Swinomish Library director

In this season of Thanksgiving, the library has so many things to be thankful for. We are extremely thankful for the amazing community volunteers and school district partners who helped us move our books into the new library. Every single book in our library was moved here by someone from our community. We feel extremely fortunate to have so many people who support our library.

We are also thankful that we are open and can welcome everyone into our new space. Our children's tugboat area has been very popular with both kids and adults. It is the perfect place to come in and enjoy a story with one of our story buddies, play with our toys or build a puzzle. We are thankful to have so many kids and parents coming in to enjoy our tugboat.

If you haven't made it in yet, remember as the days turn dark and stormy, the library is the perfect place to settle in read a book, work on your laptop, build a puzzle or discover a fun new game. We have something for everyone to enjoy and we look forward to welcoming you in.

As the holidays approach, come join us for these fun events:

Every Friday from 11-11:30 a.m. we have story time in the tugboat. This is a great time for kids to listen to a story. Katryna has great stories and fun activities for kids. This is also a perfect time for parents to connect while the kids are busy listening to their story.

Friday, Dec. 2, the library will host the annual tiny trees auction. Everyone 21 and older is invited to join us from 6:30-8:30 p.m. for sparkling wine or cider, light appetizers and a chance to bid on one of our fabulous tiny trees. The festive trees will be on display in the library from Nov. 28 until the auction Dec. 3.

Santa will visit the library on Wednesday, Dec. 7 from 5-7 p.m. Come do a fun craft and listen to Santa read the "The Night Before Christmas." You will even have a chance to get your picture taken with Santa and to tell him what you want for Christmas!

Kids, need something fun to do after Christmas? Come on Dec. 28 at 1 p.m., have some fun, eat snacks and learn how you can ride the bus for free! This is going to be a fun party.

Don't' want to stay up until midnight? Kick off the New Year at the library with Noon Year's Eve on Saturday, Dec. 31 11-12 p.m.. We will have fun crafts, snacks and just before noon we will count down to Noon Year! Come have fun and make some noise to ring in the Noon Year!
