Life with Pie, Fossils, & Origami Yoda!
Hi! Everyone- Most libraries are closed on Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Day. Don't forget that you can scale down your library fines by bringing non-perishable food items to Tigard Library this week (See Monday for details)! The rest of the week includes a local school production of "Cinderella", a Beatles cover band, Rails at Lake Oswego Library, and a not to be missed Moroccan cooking class for parents! Stay warm, Suzanne
