On March 3, we were pleased to host the second year Webelos Scouts from AuSable Valley’s Pack 54. The boys were working on their Communicator Activity Badge. They had to use our computers to exchange e-mail, look up websites that interested them, and write a letter to a friend. They also learned how books are catalogued so that they are easy to find.
The boys using the computer
Payson writes: “My visit to the library was average, I learned how to e-mail, that was exciting!”
Robert writes: “I had fun visiting the library. I liked learning how to e-mail and how books are catalogued.”
Bradley writes: “The library is fun. It was fun getting a book and going on the computer. It was fun sending e-mails.”
