The Play Space is doing a change out thanks to some AWESOME community members.
This play store is going on years old and has some wear and tear on it but it would be great for some little to have and put some more playtime to it.
If you are interested, put your child's name in for the drawing at the library.
Some lucky child will be drawn on March 10th!
Good luck!

I gave them simply a paper with two eyes on it and some crayons and asked them to create something around them.
I love to see their creativity.
One little made hers be her grandma in a dress and rosy cheeks.
The other made a happy person around hers.
The others just had fun coloring.
That's the key...Having Fun.

OLD-TIMERS TALKING, the chat group for seniors, meets 2:00 Fri., Feb. 20, in the meeting room. This time we'll be talking about the neighbors, reflecting on what these relationships have meant to us over the years, sharing good times and bad, helping each other when the going gets tough. Celebrating accomplishments, new babies, prayed-for rain. Pictured here is a birthday party shared with neighborhood kids in the Belfry school district in NE Allen County c. 1952; it was also a welcome social event for all the moms. Times have changed: many of us do not know our next-door neighbor; in the country, neighbors are far fewer and farther away. Television came into our living rooms around this time. Just think of all the sitcoms that revolved around neighbors--Ralph Kramden and Ed Norton, Lucy and Ethel, etc. -- Colleen
