Audrain County Back to School Fair is August 1, 2020.
Have you been to the Tri-County Park lately? If not, you will want to go check out the new book walk. The book walk features a children’s book along the walking trail for your family to enjoy. The current book featured is Crocodile Beat. This is a wonderful opportunity to practice Habit 7 - Sharpen the Saw, by getting exercise and reading. When we sharpen the saw we focus on any of the 4 main areas: body, heart, mind, and soul. The dates for new books to be featured will be August 3, August 24, September 15, and October 5. Be sure to visit the park to see each new book! The book walk was provided by the Vandalia Branch of the Mexico-Audrain County Library District, Friends of the Vandalia Library, and the City of Vandalia. We thank you for this wonderful addition to the park!! #bookwalk #reading #LiM #habit7 #community #exercise
