Gateway to the Paranormal presents: EVPs, Ghosts and Ghoulies!! Join our speakers, Lynne M. Nickerson and Willy Hassell, as they present stories based on Lynne’s book: Gateway to the Paranormal. This spooktacular adventure covers the seacoast towns of Kittery, Hampton and Rye, plus East Kingston and some other locals.

Miss Donna’s Story Hour will resume its 2 days per week schedule, meeting Wednesdays and Thursdays at 10:00am….starting September 13 and 14. See you there!

This activity is for ages 6-12. Younger siblings are welcome to attend, but parents will be expected to chaperone them. Although a librarian is on the premises, this is an unsupervised event. Therefore, for children who require adult supervision, we respectfully ask parents to remain in the library for the duration of the event. Goldfish crackers and water will be provided.

Ten girls in grades 6 through 9 recently completed an 8-hour 4H certified Babysitting Course at the library taught by Pam.  Topics covered included child development, nutrition, first aid, child and infant CPR, when and how to call for help, how best to entertain children and most importantly, how to be responsible and keep the children safe at all times.

They are ready and enthusiastic to start babysitting!

A list of contact information for them will be available at the library desk.
