The Library has a new display in our case for the month of April.  It is a vintage camera collection on loan to us from Kathy Sletten, who owns Hidden Creek Studio in Kingston.  The cameras date from the early 1900's all the way thru the 2000's.  Kathy will also be giving a class on Tuesday, April 9th, at the library at 6pm on how to get the best picture from your digital camera.  Kathy has also written an e-book titled "Roadside Photography" that can be purchased at Barnes & Noble or Amazon.  If you'd like to take the class, which is free, sign up the next time you are in the library.

February and NASCAR at the Mill Pond Library

February in Florida means NASCAR Racing has started for another year. At the Kingston Mill Pond Library this month, thanks to part of a collection owned by Duwane Marwitz, you will find some NASCAR diecast cars and memorabilia on display.  Most of his collection is of the late Dale Earnhardt Sr.

Happy New Year Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful holiday and a safe New Year's Eve! Check our website often for updates, classes and much more! Story hour is on Thursday's 4:30, we will read a short story, complete a craft and have a light snack! See you there!

Due to the weather, and unsafe driving conditions, we are cancelling story hour! Everyone stay safe and snuggled in! Our next story hour will be next year!

Thank you to all the very generous volunteers that donated baked goods this year! We had 10 tables FULL of delicious goodies! It was amazing how quickly everything went! Also, thank you to all the volunteers that helped set up, tear down and work the cookie walk!

If it were not for all of our volunteers, well, we just wouldn't be as successful. So, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Santa Claus is coming, to the Mill Pond Library in Kingston, on Saturday, Dec. 15th. Boys and girls, bring your lists.  Santa will be there from 10am to noon to listen to what you'd like for Christmas.  And after talking to Santa, you can take home a treat bag that is donated by the Kingston Businessman's Association.
