Thursday Club
Programming for Adult Patrons

May Newsletter

Our activities will slow a little during June and July because of our Summer Reading programs for children. We will still offer craft and book clubs and a movie night, but will have fewer special programs.

If you have suggestions for future events or would like more information on certains topics, please let us know. CGH, in particular, offers free programs on a wide variety of health issues.
