ow to amuse the children during the holiday break can be a problem for many parents but, thanks to the Sioux Lookout Public Library, a solvable one. During the week of March 10-14 the library hosted numerous events to keep children occupied and amused. Varied activities, such as screening a movie, the setting up of art stations in the children’s area of the library, a games day, and culminating with storytelling on the last day, were events that could be enjoyed by both children and parents in a warm, friendly atmosphere. Micheal Laverty, Assistant/ Children’s Librarian, spoke

about the week. “It’s been great. We typically see new families that we usually don’t see and, with the hockey tournament in town, we had a few parents and kids from northern communities drop by, which was good.” He added, “I am looking to start an after school program and a schedule that involves people of all ages, doing things like computer learning and art workshops.” Wendy MacDonald, CEO/ Chief Librarian, thought, “It was an exceptional week, very nice to a number of kids who were able to take advantage of the program. We had a number of out of towners who used the facilities we offered and that was great.
