Summer Reading: Tantasqua

We have received the Summer Reading lists from Tantasqua Junior and Senior High. We have a good variety of the suggested titles but don't wait until the end of the summer to get that reading done. It is hard to anticipate the end of summer as we just begin but the closer we get to the end of the summer the fewer books that are available.

SUMMER READING: Pre-K - Grade 3

MOLLY THE OWL & THE OWL BOX

Did you ever wonder what goes on in an owl's nest? Some folks in California put up an owl box and attached a camera to "peek" inside. An owl family has inhabited it. Molly and her mate McGee started their family. Millions of people have been watching as the eggs hatched. Six eggs were laid and four hatched successfully.

If you'd like to see the owlets progress, go to:

With the help of an infrared camera for night viewing there is 24 hour video. It can be somewhat dramatic and/or unpleasant when McGee delivers his catches of the night. But it is an amazing window into nature.

On behalf of the staff and Trustees, we wish you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving. Please remember that we will be CLOSED on Saturday, November 28 in observance of this holiday season.

THANK YOU

Is anyone willing to organize the TOWN WIDE TAG SALE?
