LINCOLN — “A library is not a luxury but one of the necessities of life” – Henry Ward Beecher.
Check out the upcoming events at the Lincoln Library: Elderly Services will be visiting on Tuesday, Aug. 21, from 10:45-11:15 a.m. The summer reading program concludes with an end of summer celebration on Wednesday, Aug. 22, from 10-11:30 a.m. There will be snacks and drawings for prizes as well as an opportunity to make a pencil gnome.
Don’t forget to check out the library’s outdoor book sale. Relax on a chair and find every kind of book — from cookbooks, to art, DIY, children’s, novels, and history, new and old, timeless and nostalgic. Stop by whether the library is open or closed. There is a self pay box mounted on the wall, and the prices are posted: $1 for hardcover, and $.50 cents for paperback, CDs and DVDs.
REMINDER: The annual meeting of the Lincoln Historical Society will be at 1 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 19, at the town office. This year’s speaker will be Lucinda Cockrell, giving a preview of her soon to be released book, “How to Weed your Attic, without Destroying History!” There will be an election of officers and activities and programs for the coming year will be discussed. All are welcome. Refreshments served.
SAVE THE DATE: Wednesday, Aug. 29, is the first day of school.
Until next time … Don’t Let The Fear Of Striking Out Get In Your Way. Be The Best Version Of You. When In Doubt, Go To The Library.
