FOR EVERYONE Reading Room Puzzle There is a jigsaw puzzle to work on in the reading room. Whenever you stop in, take a minute or two or ten (it can be pleasantly addictive!) to help complete the puzzle. A big thank you to Christine Huggins for our puzzle mat, which allows us to move the puzzle as needed. YPL Drop-in Chess Club Every Thursday at 4:00 PM Come join us for chess! Novice and experienced players are welcome. Chess is open to adults and children (ages 8 and up, please). See you then! There is a new chess set in the Reading Room for the pleasure of our patrons. _________________ And more...we now have a checkers set and a cribbage set available.

Registration not needed. _________________ Cup of Joe (tea or cocoa)! What could be better! Come in out of the cold, sit by the fire and enjoy a cup of coffee, tea or cocoa. |
