Miss Jen and Miss Karen from the Grace A. Dow Memorial Library recently visited the fourth graders at Pine River Elementary. Many of you already know about the free- and low-cost resources that the library has to offer, but did you know that adults can also check out board games, yard games, binge boxes, craft kits, discovery kits, and puzzles? They even have a telescope, hammock, and metal detector available! After that, the librarians showed the children how to search for items on the library's website: https://www.gadml.org/ Check it out!

During the conference, members learned about mental health and illnesses, coping skills, and best practices for communicating with peers. This conference was a collaborative workshop that served as a planning session for students to discuss this year's topics.
