On Center
by BRENDA STEWART
There’s not a lot happening in downtown this week. The library hosts its adult book club, the Page Turners, which will be discussing Sue Monk Kidd’s “The Secret Life of Bees” on Thursday, August 19 at 6:30 p.m.
Story times for the younger crowd continue on Wednesdays and Fridays at 10:30 a.m. and noon, with the bilingual story times being held on Fridays.
Keep in mind that this is the last week the Kyle Pool will be open during the week, so take advantage of it while it lasts. Beginning August 23, the pool will only be open on weekends through Labor Day and then you have to say goodbye for the summer.
Finally, all the kiddos who have been screeching about how bored they are now have something to do on Monday, August 23, with the kickoff of the new school year. There is going to be a bit of chaos so plan a little extra time to deal with school zones and the influx of vehicles, bikers and walkers on the road.
You can, however, offer your bleary-eyed little ones some solace. There is a school holiday just two weeks from Monday so they only have 10 days before their first break of the new school year.
