Attention children: Please come to library and read to Tango

Children of all ages are invited to stop in and read to Tango on Saturday, Oct. 5, at 11 a.m.   No advance registration is required.  Tango plans to return to the library on the first Saturday of the month for the remainder of 2013.

Tango is certified by Therapy Dogs International. Studies show that reading to furry friends like Tango can help children improve their reading skills.

This special program is made possible by the generosity of Angela Schimmel. She is volunteering to come from Findlay to share Tango with the Bluffton community.

Registration underway to join Girl Scouts

At Girl Scouts, girls are always counting down to the next adventure they will go on together.  Maybe it is artistic.  Maybe it's an experiment.  Maybe it's getting outside or helping the community. 

With Girl Scouting, girls make new friends and have a ton of new experiences that show how exciting the world is, and how awesome girls are. When girls just can't wait for what they'll do next, they can do anything they set their mind to! This is what Girl Scouts call the “I can’t wait to” feeling.
