Magic @ the Library
Magician and comedian David Moreland, of Ithaca, entertained us on July 8th with a great show. For more pictures, see the Canandaigua newspaper, the Daily Messenger, from Monday, July 14th. About 60 people attended the event. Kids and adults were laughing hysterically as David played the role of an Australian Safari Guide to go with our Summer Theme: "Catch the Reading Bug."
Butterfly Release Party
July 15th marked the date of our wildly successful Butterfly Release Party. Lindsay Kuhn of Smoke Ridge Farms, Bloomfield, led the program. Luckily, we had exactly enough butterflies to go around! Just anouther part of our "Catch the Reading Bug" Summer Reading Program. At one point, Library Clerk Christina Ingalls even had a butterfly fly up the leg of her capri shorts!
