Story Circle Break

Published on 08/22/25

Story Circle will take a break on Friday, August 22, and Friday, August 29, so that Miss Gina can take a well-deserved rest after the most successful Summer Reading Program in WCL’s history!

Our readers read enough to place 2,850 baseball stickers on the baseball field mural, triggering a donation of the same amount by the Whitefish Credit Union to the Miracle League of Northwestern Montana.

Story Circle will resume on Friday, September 5th at 11 am as usual.

Change of Summer Reading Plans

Our scheduled guest for July 10 is unable to make it.

But we have something fun planned as a replacement!

We’ve built a yard full of STEAM activities to engage ages 2-8 in exploration. You’ll find us just outside the Community Room at 10:30 am, ready to have a good (and maybe messy) time. Kids playing in rice at a sensory table

“On July 2nd, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later delegates from the 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by Thomas Jefferson. From 1776 to the present day, July 4th has been celebrated as the birth of American independence, with festivities ranging from fireworks, parades and concerts to more casual family gatherings and barbecues. ” ~ HIstory.com
