The cost is $15 for registration. Registrants will need to pay prior to the event to secure their spot. You may also register by going to MML’s website.
Milford Memorial Library’s Annual Spring Egg Hunt is going on until Monday, April 1.
Tweens, teens, and adults are invited to search for twelve items while exploring the Milford Memorial Library. Participants can pick up the Spring Egg Hunt Sheet at MML’s front desk. Turn in completed sheet to be entered into a prize drawing. The Spring Hunt prizes are sponsored by the Friends of the Milford Library.
Friday, March 22, is the last day for MML’s Make Your Own Luck Challenge. Fourth through twelfth graders get a canvas, four-leaf clover stencil, and instructions to make chalk paint. This is a free activity, but does require registration. Register by calling 712-338-4643 or online at www.milford.lib.ia.us.
Spring time is unpredictable, but MML has materials to fit them all. When the days are nice and you’re wanting to be outside, stop by MML to pick up an audiobook on Playaway, take the frisbee golf set out, or relax in a shaded spot with a book or magazine. However, we know there will be days that are gloomy, cold, and rainy. On these days stop in to select a movie or a puzzle to check out, read in a comfy chair, or bring the kids in to play. For more ideas of fun to have at the library see MML’s Calendar of Events that can be found on our website, www.milford.lib.ia. us, or take a copy home when you stop in to see us.
