July 14:  Movie Night:  Movie TBA  6:00PM

July 20:  Jeff Boyer presents The Sustainable Energy Show:  10:30 AM  The Attainable Sustainable Energy Show Kids discover the power of earth, wind and sun! Jeff Boyer engages and "wows" while inspiring excitement in renewable energy. Gripping experiments and visual effects transform wind, solar, bio-fuel and geothermal energy into usable “green” power. A mild-mannered scientist turns “eco-man” as kids help him generate the fun. It’s educational energy!

July 21:  Movie Night:  Movie TBA   6:00PM

July 26:  Tie-Dyes  3:00 PM   Bring in your old cotton t-shirt to recycle in to a colorful creation! Registration Required to attend.

July 28:  Peter Boie, Magician for Non-Believers  6:30 PM  Peter travels the country performing for colleges, libraries, private and corporate events. One of the things that have given Peter his success is his appeal to all age groups. From a five year old getting into the show and doing magic, to the hard to please teenager, to the parents and grandparents that visit the library, and everyone in between there’s something for everyone. The show runs the gamut from audience members getting into the show and doing magic themselves, to award winning mind blowing magic, to side splitting comedy.

 

August 5:  Yo-Yo People   6:30 PM   Yo-yos attached to bouncy balls, yo-yos with 10-foot strings, and multiple yo-yos looping while hula hooping and unicycling are just some of this duo’s finely tuned feats. High skill and deft timing to swingin' music coupled with high energy and sarcastic humor make the Yo-Yo People a favorite for every age.  As seen on David Letterman, they hold a Guinness World Record, a 2008 Yo-Yo World Champion title, and have performed in 18 different countries.

August 11:  Movie Night:  Movie TBA  6:30 PM
