This a reminder that St. John’s Drama Club will sing at the open house at the library from 1:00 to 2:00 pm. There will be a special visit by Santa Clause, escorted by the Warren County Sheriff’s Office, to read stories from 2:00 to 3:00 pm. From 3:00 to 4:00 pm, decorating a cone into a Christmas tree will end the afternoon. Come and make an afternoon at the Samuels Public Library.
On December 21 and 28, there will be only one storytime at 11:00 am.
The library will be closed on December 24 to December 26th and from December 31st to January 2nd.
Town Talk is a series on the Royal Examiner where we will introduce you to local entrepreneurs, businesses, non-profit leaders, and political figures who influence Warren County. Topics will be varied but hopefully interesting. Let us know if you have an idea or topic or want to hear from someone in our community. Send your request to news@RoyalExaminer.com
