2012 Summer Reading Kick-Off Event
Tuesday, May 29th @ 2:00pm Central Library in Troy

Astronomy For Everyone



Discover the size and scale of the universe.  Our kickoff event for this year's summer library program will be on Tuesday, 
May 29th at 2:00 pm at the Central Library in Troy.  Kevin Manning will take us on a virtual journey into the cosmos looking
at the very small and the very big.  He is an astrophysicist and former consultant with NASA. His passion for astronomy is strong and he wants to share his excitement with you.  I'd say that his mind is definitely in the stars, but they say he's one of the most down to earth guys you'll every meet.  There will be refreshments and door prizes following the program.  Registration for the summer of fun can be done before and after the program.  Join us as we reach for the stars!!

Tuesday June 5th @ 7pm at Troy Branch Library
Tuesday June 12th @ Wathena Branch Library






Join us with Trooper Jack Clary as he demonstrates some simple self-defense techniques for women ages 18 and over.
