Did you know that our local library offers free classes for the community? Below are a few of the classes coming up. The library is located at 9845 Folsom Blvd and their phone number is 916-264-2770. Their webiste can be seen HERE.

Tree Pruning Class: February 2, 2008 10am. Attend a free tree-pruning class at the library. A variety of useful tools and procedures will be presented.

Prevent Identity Theft and Consumer Fraud: March 6, 2008 6-8pm. A detective will present this free consumer fraud altert program. She will tell you how to protect yourself, how to check if you are a victim, and what to do if you are.

Make International Crafts: Saturdays in 2008 through February 23 (10-11am). Make crafts from around the world with library staff. This is for the entire family.

Ventriloquism and Puppetry with Steve Chaney: March 22, 2008 2pm. Come hear Steve talk about various forms of puppetry along with his side-kick Cornelius Crowe. Steve will explain the art of vetriloquism and then demonstrate a few practice techniques kids can do themselves.

Reading with the Dogs - 1st Monday of every month 6:30-7:30pm (all of 2008). Kids bring books to read out loud to a friendly dog buddy waiting for them at the library (yes, a real dog along with a trainer).

Call the library for details, especially as it pertains to the age level for each class. This may be a simple way to be resourced and also have something free to do during rainy weather.
