There are so many great events happening in September! One of those events is the Annual Art Show on Friday evening, Sept 25th and Saturday, Sept 26th. This year Saturday will also feature the Arts in the Village. Hoping for “perfect” weather!

Representative in the New Jersey Legislative Assembly will be stopping by the library on Wednesday afternoon, Sept 16th, to meet his constituents. He will be at the library 3pm to 5pm to answer questions and address your concerns. Be sure to stop by to say hello!

Heavy rains did not discourage the brave dinosaur hunters! Some 30 young hunters took to the streets of Vincentown to look for dinosaurs hidden in grasses, planters, fences, on benches and many other locations. All in all it was a very successful hunt!

Along the sidewalks of Vincentown
30 dinosaurs can be found
Brontosaurus, ankylosaurus, triceratops
Find one, find another, there’s more- don’t stop
Stegosaurus, tyrannosaurus, velociraptor
Take a picture but continue, there’s 24 more
On benches, on fences and on the ground
In objects that ring dinosaurs can be found
There’s 30 in all, so do not stall
WITHOUT HESITATION, BEGIN EXPLORATION!

Here are a few clues to get you started. More to come as weather permits (we don’t want Ms Kim to float away!)

Monday – Begin the Hunt!

Follow the clues and begin to search throughout the town for the hidden dinosaurs! Be sure to document (a photo of you with each Dino) and report to Ms Kim to be entered for the grand prize drawing!

The sound of thunder threatened the annual frog jump outside the library last evening. Instead the quick downpour soaked the handmade signs and briefly caused a bit of concern, but seemed to help clear the air a bit for the event. Then, not rain, but a crowd of people started pouring into the tent to register for the 5th Annual Frog Jump at the Vincentown Library!

Thanks to all for coming out to participate inn this fun evening. And a special thanks to Ms Kim, Professor Bullfrog , Ms Maile and all the frog catchers and volunteers for making this event a success!

Pop-up Craft! Fancy Frog Puppets

We took a break from dinosaurs for the day and made some pretty fancy frog puppets for the Annual Frog Jump this Thursday.
