Spring Break is Over
Hope all had a relaxing Spring Break. Now it is time to get back into things. Remember that the Clearwater Public Library has Lego Land every Tuesday after school until 4:30PM and Story time every Thursday at 10:30AM. Beginning on April 1 there will be an Easter contest. A small rubber duck reading a book will be hidden somewhere in the public area of the library. If you spot the duck please do not move it but tell the Librarian and then you can put your name and contact information in the box. A name will be drawn, the winner contacted and announced Good Friday (April 14th). The prize is two one time free admission to Botanica in Wichita. While you are here for the Art Walk on April 7th you can look for the Reading Rubber Duck! If you come to the Art Walk do not forget to put your name and contact information in the box to try your luck at winning two (2) passes to The Wichita Music Theatre (more art!), only at the Library.
Did you know that Reading makes you happier and healthier? Great books help you understand and they help you feel understood. Your parents always told you that reading had its benefits; but, it turns out that those benefits go way beyond learning (and keeping you out of their hair). Reading is able to reduce stress and readers show a remarkable tendency to be happier and healthier than non-readers. That is according to research put together by Raphael Lysander. There are physical benefits (like a lower heart rate) and mental/emotional benefits (like increased empathy). Read – after all, it is good for you.

You may fill out a paper survey which will be at the Library or you can go to the following link and take the survey on-line. This link is also posted on our Facebook page and our Web Site.

You do not have to sign your name to the survey, however, a “winner” will be picked from the names and that person will win two tickets to the Orpheum Performing Arts Centre Classic Film Series.

The Clearwater Public Library is having yet another contest, actually two contests, for Saint Patrick’s Day. The contest begins on March 1st and ends on March 15th so the winners have time to pick up their prizes by St. Paddy’s Day. All you have to do to enter either contest is come into the library, check out a book or DVD, put your full name and contact information in the appropriate box. Winners names will be randomly drawn and will be contacted and names published. One contest is for adults 21 or older and the prize is a gift certificate to the local “First and Last” bar, the second contest is for all those under the age of 21 and they will be able to choose a prize from the prize box.
The Clearwater Public Library serves all ages. We have Story Time (Thursdays at 10:30AM), Lego Land (Tuesdays after school to 4:30) and we are in the process of creating a “Teen Club” to work under the “Friends of the Library” group and are working on a program to integrate our “Seniors” with our youngsters. If you would like to join us for any of these programs or have any questions, please feel free to call us (620) 584-6474, or drop by the library. You can also find us on Facebook or check our Web site, www.clearwaterkslibrary.org . Truly great things happen at the library and we have an amazing staff. Do you have an interest in ideas and knowledge and a belief that they make a difference? Then you might be interested in becoming an Library Board member. If you are, please let Library Director Tina know by calling or coming by the Library. Public libraries are cool places, a place to read, learn and connect.
