We have two library programs coming up in early August at the Belden Noble Memorial Library:

Thursday, August 1, 7:00 pm. Talk and Book Signing by Sara J. Henry, author of Learning to Swim and A Cold and Lonely Place.  Learning to Swim begins with an incident on the Lake Champlain ferry and A Cold and Lonely Place begins with an incident at the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival.

Thursday, August 8, 7:30 pm. Stories and Pictures from New Zealand by Josh Bridge. Josh recently returned from five months in New Zealand as an exchange student and is looking forward to sharing his stories and slides.

Literature Courses at Essex Community Church

We also want to call your attention to two courses being offered at the Essex Community Church.  

The Joy of Poetry will run from July 22 to August 8 on Mondays and Thursdays from 7:00 to 9:00pm.  Three Shakespeare Tragedies will run from August 12 to August 29, also on Mondays and Thursdays in the same time slot.

Both courses will be taught by Richard Aberle of SUNY Plattsburgh. Cost for each course is $200, but Richard is offering family and student discounts and financial assistance. He has assured us that no one will be turned away because of finances. Contact Richard for more information at 518-963-7487 or rhetoric@mac.com.
