Summer is all about adventure! Make your own beaded key chain buddy to stay with you where ever you go! (Your buddy can also keep your library card safe!) Stop by the library to pick up your kit–please note all of our weekly kits will be on a “first come, first served” basis. However, if any are still leftover after the week is done, they will be available to take.
