Bring your own drink in a container with a screw cap lid and your own snacks. We have a listing of the movie titles available in the library.
You are invited to the next Randolph Township History Symposium for September 16th at 6 pm in the library Community Room. We will be exploring Randolph Township’s one-room school houses before the consolidation of 1948. Up until 1948 the Randolph Township had ten one-room school houses. During the consolidation of 1948 two one-room schools in Downs Township and one in Funks Grove Township moved into the Unit 4 school district. Our focus will be on these thirteen schools and their history.
We will be hosting Home Brewing with Kyle Karraker of Twin City Homebrewing on September 22 at 6:30 pm. Come learn about the art of brewing craft beer. No samples will be provided, and all ages are welcome.
