Gentle yoga is back at the Library! Those of us who have tried yoga have learned that it can be a lot more intense than it looks! That’s why we are working with Village Yoga to bring this exciting program back to the Library for those of us who are looking for a less strenuous, but just as relaxing, experience. Please bring a yoga mat if you have one. This series is brought to you thanks to a generous grant from The Hover Foundation.
Communities are lifted up by those putting their time and energy toward its improvement. But it can be difficult to find the right organization to put your energy toward! That’s why we are organizing our first ever Volunteer Fair: to provide a place for eager volunteers to meet with local not-for-profits that need their help. Come learn about a wide variety of organizations from across the county and hear about their mission time requirement, skills needed, and more.
