New website in the works

Greetings from the library. Postings have been few and far between lately, and we are sorry, but the reason for this is very exciting...

We are designing a new website! You'll still find us at www.greenfieldpubliclibrary.org, but we'll have a new look, easier navigation, and much more content.

The new site will be up and running at the beginning of September. We look forward to sharing with you.

What's buzzin'? A special showing of The Ant Bully at the Garden Cinema at 9:00 on August 19th, that's what!

If you participated in the Summer Reading Program, bring your certificate or reading log to the Garden Theater for free admission. Otherwise, there is a charge of $4 to see the film, with the money being donated to the Friends of the Greenfield Public Library. (Concessions are extra.)

Our thanks to the Garden Cinema for this exciting event!

Winnie the Pooh Party

Kids! Bring your bear to a Winnie-the-pooh party! A hunny of a good time will be had by all. Thursday, August 17th from 3 - 5. Suggested ages 3 and up.

Call the Children's Room for details.

DDR Workshop

The Greenfield Public Library is pleased to announce a Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) program for youth entering grades 6-12 on Friday, August 11, 2006 from 7:00-9:00 PM.DDR is a video game players can dance to, like an electronic version of "Twister," or "Simon Says" for your feet. Up to four players can compete at once, following directional arrows on the screen by stepping on corresponding arrows on a floor mat controller. More details can be found at http://www.ddrfreak.com.

Registration for Greenfield residents begins on July 11, with the first ten (10) slots being reserved for Greenfield residents. Starting July 25, residents of other towns may sign up for any remaining slots. The first twenty (20) players to return a signed permission slip will be eligible for participation. DDR is a safe and fun game; however, participants play this game at their own risk. The Library cannot be responsible for participants’ health or fitness. Permission slips/fact sheets can be picked up at the library. There are still spaces available!
