Our calendar is packed with engaging and entertaining programs designed for all age groups, so whether you're a kid, teen, or adult, there’s something just for you. Come be part of the fun, explore new things, and make this summer unforgettable!
Reminder: our new monthly program, the Alpha-Gal Syndrome Support Group, will have its first meeting on June 26th at 4PM. See below for more details.
All my best,

Summer Reading has been a blast so far !
NEW PROGRAM ALERT! Due to the growing prevalence of tickborne red meat allergies, we are starting a support group for folks who suffer from Alpha-Gal Syndrome. On the last Thursday of each month, we'll share stories, ideas, recipes, and most of all, support!
