Bethlehem 4H Busy Stitchers "Mini Fair"

We are pleased to welcome our local 4-H group who will display their crafts and sewing in the Leever Room
August 18th and 19th during Library hours.
Members range in age from 8-14 and projects were chosen based on their age and ability. To adhere to the 4H motto, "To Make the Best Better", projects are being evaluated and constructive remarks given.
The Busy Stitchers have been active since 1955 when the club was founded by Jean Smith. The current leaders are Elaine Brodeur and Jennifer Woodward.

Important notice to parents and students:

This year the Region 14 schools is providing digital
Reg14 Summer Learning Resources. With the unexpected closing of schools, it is even more important than ever that the learning continue during the summer.

Note for Parents:

We miss having your pre-schoolers here for weekly story time, and look forward to resuming the programs when it is safe. During the summer, we offer prepackaged small craft projects upon request. You may also ask for pre-selected bundles of books; just let us know your child’s age and interests. The Children’s Room is open for all kids
and their grown-ups to choose materials
for summer reading.
