Hello all,

If you are looking for fun things to do with kids in our area, you may find some ideas here:  http://penobscotcountyparents.blogspot.com/ 

where a local mom shares her tips on family friendly activities.

Here’s what’s going on at the Children’s Department next week:

Please take a look at our new website,  and sign up for notification of events by using the Notify Me button at the bottom of the calendar page.  At the end of August we will stop sending these weekly emails and hope that you will make the switch to website notifications before then.    Here is the link: http://www.orono.org/list.aspx
