MENTONE— News and upcoming events from Bell Memorial Public Library are as follows:
Thank You To Pro Tree Service
Our flag pole rope was broken and Pro Tree Service graciously donated their time and expertise to repair the rope and mount our new flag. We cannot thank them enough for donating their services.
Engraved Memorial Brick Paver
Build a memorial in memory of a loved one and purchase an engraved memorial brick paver for Bell Library’s reading garden. Create a lasting symbol of honor to a loved one or have your name or message in a permanent place for people to see for years to come. These bricks may be inscribed with up to four lines. Each line will contain up to 12 spaces, including blanks. The bricks will then be incorporated in to the walkway throughout the reading garden. For more information contact Roger Moriarty, Board President at (574) 353-7938.
Easter Bunny Painting on Wood
This bunny is painted on wood with a bow, butterfly and a bushy tail attached. Great for your Easter décor. Cost for this program will be $4 and you must sign up. Check out our website for a picture of the project or on display in the library. Time and date is at 6 p.m. Tuesday, March 22. This program is for adults and teens only.
CPR Class at Bell Library
Learn this lifesaving technique used in many emergencies, such as heart attack. Statistics prove that if more people knew CPR, more lives could be saved. If you are interested in learning CPR, sign up for the class. Time and date is 6-8 p.m. Thursday, March 24. Cost is $10 per person and you will receive certification when you complete the class.
Chris Lee, Field Representative for Congresswoman Jackie Walorski Will be at Bell Library
Do you have a question, concern, or comment for Congresswoman Jackie Walorski? Chris Lee Field representative for Jackie Walorski will be at Bell Library from noon-1 p.m. Tuesday, March 22.
Help Us Decorate the New Fish Tank in the Children’s Room
We now have a fish tank in the Children’s Room and we need a background to decorate the tank. Kids 12 and under are invited to pick up a piece of paper by the tank in the Children’s Room and decorate it. Decorations will be used as a background for the fish, so be creative.
