On Wednesday, July 20, we've arranged for extended hours at Lake Wyola Park, 6-8:30 pm, for a community party co-sponsored by the Shutesbury 250th Anniversary Steering Committee and the Friends of the MN Spear Library.
Lifeguards will be on duty, and parking during those hours will be free!
Bring a picnic! Swimsuits! And games or musical instruments if you wish! We'll be informally celebrating Shutesbury's 250th anniversary of incorporation, the 200th anniversary of the establishment of Shutesbury's "social library" as a traveling bookcase . . . and now, of course, the wonderful announcement on July 14 of the award to Shutesbury of a $2.1 million construction grant for a new library on Leverett Road!
In honor of these events, members of the 250th Anniversary Steering Committee and the Friends of the MN Spear Library will be serving lemonade, watermelon and cake.
So come swim, schmooze, eat, drink and be not just merry, but "always cooler" -- by dipping in the waters of Wyola at the end of what promises to be a very hot day.
And before or after you change into your swimsuits, stop to admire Maili Page's photo exhibit of Lake Wyola scenes past and present (displayed in a special case mounted on the west side of the buildilng).
Join us!
