Lambs were the subject of this week's storytime. Children's Laibrarian Ingvild chose a really cute lamb craft for the children and they loved coloring, folding and gluing their project. Thanks Ingvild for all of your hard work and dedication. Just Like Home Daycare Thursday, March 31

Last Fall Kasson Public Library partnered with Rochester Civic Theater's Perfect Partner's grant. This grant made tickets available to KM residents as part of the greater Minnesota Library Legacy Grant. Fifty residents of the Kasson-Mantorville area will attend the musical Beauty and the Beast on Sunday, April 3rd at 2pm. There is a great mix of children, parents, and grandparents going to the play to make it a great trip for all ages to enjoy a timeless musical.
After being gone for the winter months our improved bike rack is back thanks to city worker Al Riedel. The much larger bike rack was hit by many cars, trucks etc. and was becoming a harzard and needed to be replaced. Al took on the task of designing a smaller version, fits about 4 bikes, that would fit between two poles and be more friendly to vehicles. Thank you Al for helping us maintain a bike rack for the residents of Kasson.
Spring was this week's storytime theme. The children loved the stories that children's Liabrarian Ingvild read to them. They also created a small mural that hang at our front door and the children were excited to help place their handprints into flowers. Stop by and look at the mural.
