Chrisman Library News
All the Halloween activities were blessed by nearly perfect weather. It makes things so much easier and better when the weather cooperates! Scare on the Square was enormously popular! Thank you to the many people who came out to tour the (creepy) attic! Lori, Rob, Toby, and Lori’s sister Beth, you are so imaginative, inventive, and patient! Thank you for creating such an amazing space.
Thanks to the many actors who were spooks and goblins and other scary creatures. Thanks to the board members who worked: Greg, Kyle, Loretta, Rick and our security guy Caleb.
It may sound a little odd, but we want to thank the plumbers who came out on Saturday afternoon to fix our broken bathrooms. When the great number of ghosts and monsters started using our facilities, they basically just quit working and that was a problem!
The Library Crawl is officially over now but you can still visit other libraries. Getting your passport stamped and being in the drawing is over, but it’s still fun to see what other towns have for their libraries. ALSO we still have some books to give away! I need to move them out in the next couple of weeks so we will be clear to decorate for Christmas. If you haven’t looked yet, you need to come pretty quickly.
