Smith Hill Library

Join us at the Smith Hill Library for a community meeting about environmental health and justice initiatives. November 6th at 5:15pm.

We wish to thank Mayor Smiley for being our guest speaker at today's You Be the Candidate program. He talked with youth about what it's like being Mayor, what it's like to campaign, what a political convention is like, and much more. Youth discussed their ideas for the future and what they would do if they were in office.

It's time for our annual Halloween Spooktacular at the Smith Hill Library! Fun for kids and adults! There will be crafts for all ages and Tarot Card readings for adults.

We want to thank Representative David Morales for moderating our student debate last Tuesday. Ms. Jennifer has been running "You Be the Candidate," a youth program on Tuesdays after school about civics and the election process in America. Congratulations to our young debaters for their very thoughtful platforms and speeches!
