The Mountaineer Therapy Dogs will be present on Saturday, October 5 from 1:30 – 2:30 p.m.
 
The dogs are eager to have children read stories aloud to them.  All children are invited to participate, but please register first.
 
Wiggly Wednesdays is a story time that incorporates creative movement activities.  It welcomes participants ages 4- 8 and is scheduled on Wednesday, October 9th and 23rd at 3 p.m.
 
Pizza and Pages is a monthly book club for children between the ages of 8 and 12.  Children interested in the program are invited to read the book in time for the discussion.  A limited number of copies of the books are available.  Please ask Amy at the library to borrow a copy of “The Aviary.”  October 10th at 6 p.m. is the date.
 
The West Virginia Raptor Rehabilitation Center will educate participants on the importance of raptors, their environment, and their work at the raptor center.  This program is for members of all ages.  Registration is required.  Mark your calendar for Saturday, October 12th at 2 p.m.
