Editor’s Corner

Ryan Whelpley, Branch Manager for

the Geneva Library and I recently talked

about expanding our coordination.

We talked about many things like the

50th anniversary of the moon landing

program they will have this summer.

He talked about providing activities for

seniors at the Library and our Center.

The synergy of the old and young

synchronizes the present and future.

We’ll ask for your input soon.

Let the lamb win in March and April.
