July is over and soon the pool will be closing, parents will be shopping for school, and sending the kids back to classes. All the signs that summer will soon be over are right around the corner. Yet, we do have some changes at EMCL that are occurring in August.
August is the month when East Morgan County Library takes a break from kids programs. TAG team, Kids Fun Time and morning Story time will pause until Wednesday, September 7.
On August 1, we will introduce our Play Away Launchpads. We have purchased 5 of these tablets that are geared to 3-7 year olds. These are very secure and can be cleared with the touch of a reset button. No internet connection is necessary. The Launchpads can be checked out by an adult for three weeks. They can be used in the library by anyone.
EMCL will be having an Adults Only program on August 6 at 2 p.m. Alli Howe, Certified Health Education Specialist, will be presenting a program called Healthy Hacks for your Lunch Sacks. She will be doing a live presentation for parents who want ideas to pack a healthier lunch. Alli will discuss money and time saving ideas, strategies to help kids try new foods, and fun ways to serve fruits and veggies.
Common Cents presentations will take place Monday nights in August at 6 PM.
Topics include investment strategies, retirement needs, different type of investments, risks and benefits of investments, and how much money you will need to retire. We all work hard for our money.

Come and learn about some good ways to put it to work for you.
Tai Chi will be taking place Wednesdays at 5:15 in August. One needs to sign up for these classes and a small fee is charged for the instructor.
The People’s Market sponsored by the Chamber will be taking place for 10 weeks starting Wednesday, August 10, from 4 to 7 p.m. Stop by for a little craft and produce shopping. If you have any questions about this, call the Chamber of Commerce for Brush at 842-2666.
Don’t forget Craig Johnson, author of the Longmire series, will be stopping by East Morgan County Library. He will present to the public on Saturday, September 10, at 1:30 p.m. Mr. Johnson will be signing books following his presentation.
A note from the Director:
The East Morgan County Library District has enjoyed a busy summer with many activities. We are continually looking for ways to serve the people in our community in keeping with our vision statement: “Providing patrons with inspiration, education, and recreation for over 100 years.” We want our library and park to be a place where people feel welcome and can find the resources they need to fulfill this vision. Included in this is the safety of all who visit. We have found that our sidewalks and outdoor lighting in the park are not adequate, so in the coming months you may see some work and activity on the East Morgan County Library District grounds. We will be removing some sidewalks that are not able to be replaced, and adding others around the perimeter of the park. We will also be adding better lighting throughout the park. All of this is to ensure the safety of all, no matter the time of day. If you have any questions, feel free to call the library and talk to Laura at (970)-842-4596.
