Today’s MESH play moment for Mental Health Awareness Month! 🧲
This is what resilience looks like in action—kids trying, adjusting, collaborating, and trying again. Play isn’t just fun. It’s practice for life. We’re excited to be part of Play for Resilience™ initiative this May for Mental Health Awareness Month! Visit us to explore toys, games, and activities that help build resilience through play.

☀️ SUMMER SCHEDULE UPDATES ☀️

Summer is practically here, and we have a few important changes to our regular schedule to keep on your radar!

Please note that starting in June, the Chess Club and our Wednesday D&D sessions are taking a break for the summer season and will not be meeting.

However, our Friday gaming crew isn't going anywhere—it's just leveling up! Our Friday D&D group is transforming into Summer Adventures. Along with the new name, we are shifting to a brand-new kickoff time. Starting in June, grab your dice and join us on the 2nd & 4th Fridays at 2:00 PM sharp for an afternoon of epic quests.

Enjoy the sunshine, keep reading, and we'll see you at the library!
