Bluffton Public Library

Here's a summary of activities

Bluffton Public Library announces its August events and services. Here's a summary:

Backyard Habitats, a presentation by Dan Hodges of Johnny Appleseed Metro Park District will be held on July 17 at 6 p.m.

With less than 10% of land in Allen County in any semblance of natural area, our rich natural history is in danger of becoming just that – history. Join Naturalist Dan Hodges for a sampling of what the natural world in this area has to offer, and learn a little about how you can participate -- even in your own backyard!

Bluffton Public Library presents another FREE Mobile Health Clinic tomorrow from 9:30-11:30 a.m. Meet staff and students of the ONU Healthwise program in their Mobile Health vehicle in the library’s rear parking lot. This clinic offers free screenings for blood pressure, blood glucose, and lipids (please fast for 12 hours prior to your arrival if you wish to participate in the lipids screening) as well as a bone density screening for osteoporosis. Participants may speak with Healthwise students and staff about their results or concerns, and even receive referrals to area doctors.

With programs for youth through adults

Here's the list of special programs in July at the Bluffton Public Library.

The “Libraries Rock” Summer Program continues. Because registration for many of these programs began at the beginning of June, registration may be full for some programs. To register, call at 419-358-5016, visit our website at blufftonpubliclibrary.org, or stop in during library hours.

Adults age 18 and up are welcome to the library’s Self Care Mini Conference on July 9 beginning at 6 p.m.

This mini-conference has a broad self-care focus, from traditional to alternative. Registrants will meet with and gather information from local businesses and organizations as well as complete activities to focus on self care.

Speakers include:

Tuesday's library "make and take" session is all about music

Let's make some music.

One of this summer's Bluffton Public Library popular repeating programs for youth returns on Tuesday.

It's another "make and take" session, held at 1 p.m., Tuesday, June 26.

Children going into grades K-5 are encouraged to attend the craft session as recycled musical instruments will be constructed. Registration is required to insure that all participants have enough material to create their instruments.
