Teddy Bear Sleepover

The Rifle Branch Library will be hosting a Teddy bear sleepover on January 9th from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. Children come dressed in your pajamas and be sure to bring your favorite teddy bear or stuffed animal because your teddy will stay at the library overnight for a special sleepover! The evening will begin with stories, then we'll do a craft and also have a bedtime snack. Be sure to pick up your friend the next day along with a special souvenir! Find out what happens when the lights go out at the library!

Tween Book Club

Tweens (ages 9 to 12) are invited to read and talk about good books at the library.  Each member selects their own book to discuss. Tweens will be writing anonymous reviews for a library "magazine" and blog, as well as creating bookmarks about their books (to be displayed in the library). The Tween Book Club meets after school on the second Thursday of each month from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. Light snacks are served.
