The Annual Patron Survey (August 19- September 19, 2011)

Fitness Checklists

Think you're "fit"? This fall, the library will offer a checklist on a different kind of "fitness" each month. Pick one up, and when you've completed at least ten items on the list, turn it in at the library for a chance to win a prize! 

You can print your checklist here.

September's topic is Environmental Fitness.  More information is available here.
