Kat Bennett, 25, feels out of place in crumbling Shelley House, plagued by guilt and deemed prickly by neighbors. Dorothy Darling, 77, is Shelley House's longest resident, known for her cantankerous nature, hiding a secret and rarely leaving home. When their building faces demolition, Kat and Dorothy, once enemies, unite to save it. As dirty tricks target a resident, they suspect foul play. With the police closing the case, this unlikely duo takes it upon themselves to seek justice and protect their historic home.

 
This delightful little nature guide for young children is all about discovering the wonderful world of birds swooping, soaring, fluttering, and flying around your neighborhood and beyond

Hard Labor Creek Presents Camping 101
Monday, July 15 from 11:00am – 12:00pm

It's never too early to start camping with your kids. A family overnight outside is a great way to initiate the younger set to the joys of being in nature. From babies to teens, kids of all ages will find so many things to captivate them on a camping trip: a star-speckled sky, the distant call of an owl, a tiny bug working in the dirt. Camping can open their eyes and awaken their senses to their natural environment. Join David Guzman from Hard Labor Creek give the basics for camping 101. Registration is not required. All ages welcomed. 

Reminder! The last day to turn in Summer Reading logs and log points in Beanstack is Friday, July 26th. The drawing for prizes will be on Monday, July 29!
