This Friday evening Vincentown Village will celebrate the beginning of the holiday season with the Annual Tree lighting. Festivities, including music and a “special” guest, will begin at 6:30 pm.

Our library is getting ready for the holidays and planning programs for the little ones.

We’ll begin to celebrate at Story hour, Wednesday morning at 10:30 am, reading stories and making a simple Christmas tree craft.

Thursday’s group of 4 and 5 year old children will be making a Santa calendar to begin their countdown to Christmas.

As always, masks are required. And, please let us know if you plan to attend! (609-859-3598 or 609-859-9002)

Happy Thanksgiving!

There’s a flurry of activity! Since everyone’s getting ready for Thanksgiving we will not be having story hour tomorrow.

Next week we can begin preparing for our next big holiday. Stop by the library and pick up a few cookbooks to find a few new cookie recipes.

Story hour will resume next week on Wednesday morning at 10:30 a.m. AND our Thursday afternoon story/craft for 4 and 5 year old kids will resume at 1:30 p.m. on December 2nd.

Registration is necessary for all programs and masks are mandatory. Call 609-859-9002 or 609-859-3598.

We welcome November, the crisp mornings, the falling leaves and holidays (can you believe the Christmas music has already begun?).

Sadly we bid adieu to our good friend, Library Director, Marsha Jones, as she heads off into the world of retirement. We’ll miss her and the enthusiasm she displayed for EVERYTHING! Hopefully, our Miss Marsha will stop by to visit often.

We welcome our new Library Director, Maile Irion. Maile is not a stranger to most of the children in the area, for her many years of service to the Southampton school system. As Director she looks forward to seeing old friends and making new ones. Stop by to meet Maile and welcome her to our library community.
