NOTE: The topic of the July 17 performance has changed. The performance, at
7:00 pm, will feature a family sing-along, led by Jimmy Bass, director of the A.
Mitchell Powell Jr. Public Library. Kids are invited to bring oatmeal containers, coffee cans, and similar items that they may use as drums, as well as bring medicine bottles that they may use as shakers. Kids may decorate their instruments at the library before the program.
The library thanks Lee-Goodrum Pharmacy for donating medicine bottles for the
July 17 program.
