Did gaining that hour of sunlight make up for missing the precious 60 minutes of sleep? If you are still walking in a fog, wake up your brain at the Stettler Public Library. We have incredible things happening and I am sure that you will wake up in no time. But don’t forget to sign out an item or two while you are here.
On Thursday, March 12 we have a couple of programs to entertain you. At 5:30 p.m. the Spine Crackers Teen Book Club is discussing “City of Ember” and at 6:30 p.m. Chicks with Sticks offers the opportunity to catch up on or begin a new craft project. Join us.
Hockey cards are for everyone. Join us on Friday, March 13 from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday, March 14 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. for Hockey Card Weekend at the library. Come buy, sell, or trade your hockey cards and see if you can find a wonderful treasure.
Does your son sneak around corners? Do you find your daughter writing coded messages? Maybe they are international spies in the making. Join us on Saturday, March 14 at 10:30 a.m. for Secret Agent Day at the Stettler Public Library. They will learn useful skills like how to make invisible ink, coded messages and all sorts of spy activities.
If making a catapult and watching something flying through the air so it can go splat is more up your child’s alley, then come Launch a Leprechaun on Tuesday, March 17 at 4 p.m. Make your own catapult and use it to launch a leprechaun made out of Play-Doh. Destruction will ensue and it will be at the library and not your living room.
The library is looking for any toys that are no longer needed or wanted for our toy hacking day when you can Make Your Own Mutant. Your time to put Barbie’s head on Optimus Prime’s body is on Saturday, March 21 at 1 p.m. You must pre-register by calling us at 403-742-2292 as there are limited spaces for Stettler’s Dr. Frankensteins.
We’ve also settled on a date for our Bubbles & Bling party. Save the date on Saturday April 18 at 7 p.m. for a fabulous time. Advance tickets are available at the library for $30 ($35 at the door) and we have a gorgeous pair of diamond and amethyst earrings as the night’s grand prize. More details are yet to come and we will reveal them in future weeks. Don’t be left out of the fun-- get your tickets today.
Put Saturday, March 28 2 p.m. on your calendar and join us at the Stettler Public Library for the Living Library. You can meet new people and find out about their unique experiences. Each “book” can be signed out for a period of 15 minutes at a time. It is a great way to learn about the uniqueness of your community.
As you can see, the Stettler Public Library is more than you imagined. If you can’t stop by and see us, check out our webpage: spl.prl.ab.ca or like us on Facebook (facebook.com/StettlerPublicLibrary).
