It was a regular ol’ barnyard at the Delaware Main Library last night with a fantastic program done by local organization Bring the Farm to You! Families met some of the farm’s chicks, chickens, ducks, poults (baby turkeys) and rabbits. And let’s not forget a special appearance by the farm’s whopping 50 pound turkey named Tom!
For the sixth year, the Delaware County District Library is partnering with Preservation Parks of Delaware County during our Summer Reading Club. Beginning June 8, you can sign up to win prizes for the Summer Reading Club and you can get your guide for the Preservation Parks Summer Letterbox Adventure. Letterboxing is fun and gives families a unique way to explore some of the great outdoor areas Delaware County has to offer.
We had a magical time at the Fairy Ball at the Orange Branch last night. Over 200 fairies, big and small came out to dance, make crafts, share stories, and cause mischief!
Maybe this is how fairies see the world. Isn't it beautiful?
