Chess Club Thursday, April 9 5:30—8:00 PM Thursday, April 23 5:30—8:00 PM Chess teaches us to think, visualize, problem solve, strategize and take risks. Play the game that spans cultures and generations. By learning chess, one of the oldest and most fascinating of games, you can make a friend and learn a little sportsmanship. Our Chess Club meets the 2nd & 4th Thursday of each month at 5:30pm. All ages and skill levels welcome. No registration required. For more information or if you have any questions, please email Robert at wogglenut@earthlink.net

We are partnering with the United Way of Dutchess & Orange to be a drop-off location for their 100,000 Diaper Drive. Join us in keeping babies happy and healthy. Diapers are the #1 requested items by our community. Every child deserves to start life with dignity and comfort, yet many families in Dutchess and Orange counties, providing essential items like diapers can be a struggle. Drop off donations of new in package diapers in the box in the Library lobby now through May 14th.
