Babytime
Babies and young toddlers are just starting to understand the world and what’s going on around them. Join Miss Dawn for stories, songs, bounces, sensory play, and more! All of these elements help young children develop the skills necessary for learning to read. Each session will also feature tips for caregivers on how to set that early foundation for later reading.
Have an older sibling who needs to come along? Please bring a "lovey" for your older child to use as their "baby" during the lap sits and fingerplays. They love this!
This program is for ages 0 to 2 years. This program is designed for children and accompanying adults. Please plan to attend and be engaged with your child for this program. Drop offs will not be permitted.

Literate Foodie Club
Literate Foodies has been meeting since March 2016. They focus each meeting on a book and topic for discussion and a rotating team of cooks prepare related recipes for a sampling by all attendants. Each month could feature chef memoirs, food travel, food history, national and international cuisines, techniques, and cookbooks!
We have a rotating panel of members who participate in presentations; each from unique backgrounds but all share a love of food, reading, and learning. Dana and Jan are retired professionals who facilitate the program by planning and bringing a love of food and ideas to our very social group.

Death Cafe
Death Cafe is a gathering to talk about death and dying. The aim is to increase awareness of death to help people make the most of their (finite) lives. It is a global, non-profit movement begun in London in 2011: to date, more than 7,000 Death Cafes have been held in 63 countries. Death Cafe does not promote beliefs, agendas, or products, nor is it a bereavement or grief support group. Join us for open, respectful, interesting conversation about topics relevant to all of us but often considered “dark” or even taboo. From more information go to www.deathcafe.com
