The Great Fall Read begins this week at Saline District Library. This year’s chosen book is “The New Annotated Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” by Robert Louis Stevenson.
Teen and adult patrons can pick up a copy of the book at the library and register for the event at the library’s website. Readers are encouraged to answer weekly trivia questions for a chance to win prizes.
Participants are encouraged to expand their reading experience by taking a Great Fall Literature Read walk. The wooded trail, located behind the library, will provide stops along the path where readers can learn more about the book and its author. Hiking boots or walking shoes are recommended on the mulch-covered trail.
Readers who are looking for a hands-on experience can also register for a weekly Creepy Crafts kit that they can take home and assemble. These creepy crafts will change weekly, but supplies are limited. Some of the offerings include book boxes, potion bottles, test tubes, and charm necklaces. Photos are available at the library website.
For more information on the Great Fall Read, visit the library at 555 N. Maple Rd, or visit the website: www.salinelibrary.org.
Sunny, with a high of 78 and low of 53 degrees. Overcast in the morning, clear during the afternoon and evening,
Did they announce if they’re doing the 1 mile run down Michigan avenue?
If this mileage passes, has the City of Saline, for example, committed to reduce their millage by 2.0 that they no longer
need to send to the Fire Department?
It should be stated that this mileage is going to raise the taxes for many homes by $800 per year (based on a $250K SEV). There has been no commitment that the 2.0 mil that currently exists will be replaced even though it is alluded to. That is a huge increase.
The Fire Dept. likely does have unmet needs. We have been in meetings where the Fire Chief has spoken and our impression has been that he is not fully transparent, massaging information to present a case to achieve what he wants rather than solidly and transparently defining reality and options.
