TERRY FOX
Who said that?: Ventriloquist Kellie Haines, Magrau the bird and Kamilla the frog will take a trip into outer space with the help of the audience at Fox. The multitalented entertainer with a background in theatre, clowning, singing and dance will perform from 11 to 11:45 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 3. Free tickets are already available.
Grab & go: Do you like surprises? Are you adventurous enough to check out a bag of books sight unseen? If you answer yes, then your books are ready. Grab & Go book bags are available for children, teens and adults. These bags are offered in many different genres - including action/adventure, Canadiana, popular fiction, romance, science fiction and more - and inside, there are a number of books preselected by library staff to save you time.
