Greetings!
A hearty thank you to all who came and made our first ever Spelling Bee a spectacular success! It was a friendly and spirited competition and a true celebration of community bonhomie. (Bonus point: using it in a sentence.)
Like most of you, we at Patten Free Library are ready for spring sunshine and warmer days. At this time of year we look for ways to get outside as much as possible - story times move to the gazebo, as does the Summer Sharing table, and staff and visitors take full advantage of our idyllic setting in Library Park.
We are also pleased to share special opportunities for spring and summer outings to you through our
Library Parks and Museum Pass Program. Passes to the Botanical Gardens in Boothbay, the fabulous Maine Maritime Museum right here in Bath, and the Maine State Parks are all available to reserve at the Circulation Desk. This year we have added a pass to the Railway Village Museum in Boothbay, in addition to the Children's Museum in Portland, the Portland Museum of Art, and many more.
We're grateful that PFL can be a part of your spring and summer adventures!
Lesley Dolinger
Library Director
