October News

The spooky time of year is upon us and all programming librarians have lots of programs to celebrate all things fall and Halloween! Check out our Adult, Young Adult, and Kids pages on this website for more details on this month’s programs!

On a general note, the library is hosting its fourth annual Murder Mystery Party and Dinner! This year’s theme is Murder at the Disco. We still have plenty of spots left so stop by the library or give us a call today to sign up for a character. Catering is being provided by Urban Bru and cookies provided by Maddison Flanagan. This event is always a wonderful time and this year’s theme looks to be one of our best so far!

Halloween is just a few weeks away and we look forward to seeing everyone again at Halloween Palooza! Stop by the GPL tent and hang out with some groovy librarians (plus, you know, free candy!).
