7th Annual Point 5k

wednesday, March 26 at 5 p.m.

We heard you! You like being outside in the cold snowy weather so we’ve brought the annual .5K event back to its icy beginning! Join us at the Library to walk, run, showshoe, skate, slide, or stroll one-half of a kilometer (approximately one-third of a mile) around the Village of Clinton. Registration is FREE. To sign up, download and print a registration form, stop at the KTL or register online by clicking here.

Sponsored by Access Federal Credit Union, County Legislator Chad Davis, First Source Federal Credit Union, Strategic, and William Owens & Sons.

Thank You, Stewarts!

Thanks to a gift from Stewart’s Holiday Match, the Library will be able to expand its collection of Wonderbooks and purchase a new toy for imaginative play! Wonderbooks are print books with a ready-to-play audiobook inside. Kids just press play to read along. With a new market stand, kids can pretend they are setting up their own shop, inspiring fun and imaginative play. To learn more about the program, visit www.stewartsshops.com/community-giving.
