Many thanks to all who helped make the Corinth Free Library’s Book & Bake Sale a success.  We could not have done it without all the people who donated books and baked goods.

Thanks to all our helpers:  Ken Carter, Amy Fasulo, Dan Fasulo, Lloyd & Lea Murdoch, Michael Hadfield, Dave Fasulo, Jane Kribs, Felicia Hopkins, Carol Barcomb, Sheri Welch, Rebekah Lytle, Josh Lytle, Sara Frechette, Juliana and John Coltrain, and all the Junior Honor Society students who helped carry books.

Thanks to the Town of Corinth and Shawn Eggleston and his crew for the use of the truck, to the Corinth Central School for the use of the tables, to Stewart’s for ice cream certificates, and to the American Legion Post #533 for the loan of the tents.

Summer seems to be flying by!  Summer Reading is well underway.  Our next special event is Tuesday July 17 at 1pm when Anne Clothier from the Brookside Museum will help children understand the importance that waterways have played in the history of Saratoga County and specifically the Hudson River in Corinth.

On Tuesday July 24 at 1pm our own Michael Hadfield will entertain us with stories and songs of our River of the Mountains.

Saturday July 28 is the Friends of the Library’s annual Book & Bake Sale.  From 10am-3pm we will be on the front and side lawn with lots of books at great prices.  If we have a total washout, the raindate is the next Saturday – August 4 at the same time.

Monday July 30 at 7pm it’s Science Night!  Bring the kids and let them learn about science through play.

Corinth 200

  This year’s Summer Reading Program will keep with the spirit of our Town’s Bicentennial celebration. We’ll start with sign-ups (the old fashioned way: in person at the Library!) beginning on June 23^rd, and then each reader will have until August 10^th to finish and give a brief oral report on five books. After that, prizes and a party!

  Special events will include Civil War Camp Life with re-enactor David Otto (July 10^th at 1:00), Saratoga County Waterworks with Anne Clothier (July 17^th at 1:00), River of the Mountains: The Hudson in Story and Song (July 24^th at 1:00) and the afore-mentioned party on August 10^th.

  Also throughout the summer, we’ll be having a Historical Marker Scavenger Hunt: Get the details when you sign up!
