Valentine's Sweetheart Tea Scheduled for February 9th

The fourth annual Valentine’s Sweetheart Tea will be held Saturday, February 9, at the library.

Hosted by the Friends of the Lane Library, this program is free of charge and is open to children ages three through eight, each accompanied by an adult.  
Once again, due to the popularity of the event, two seatings will be held.  The morning tea time is scheduled from 10:30 a.m. to noon, and the afternoon tea time will be held from 1:30 to 3 p.m.

“Last year, forty children attended the Valentine’s Tea, and we look forward to another great turnout,” comments Arlenea Batchelder who is chairing the event for the Friends.  “The Sweetheart Tea is a very festive event, and it’s delightful to see the children dressed up and using real china for the special occasion.”
In addition to enjoying a delicious array of finger foods and desserts, participants will put their artistic skills to work creating Valentine’s crafts and enjoy storytime with Children’s Librarian Paulina Shadowens.

Seating is limited and pre-registration is required. To sign-up or for additional information, stop by the Lane Library Children’s Room.

The Valentine’s Sweetheart Tea is one of many events organized by the Friends, a volunteer organization that sponsors speakers, exhibits, special events and fundraisers for the benefit of the library.  For more information or to join the Friends, visit its website, or contact the Lane Memorial Library, 926-3368.
