Composting is a little like baking a cake. There are some basic science principles required to successfully create compost in the shortest possible time but the rest is art, allowing you to create a composting setup that works for you. The WSU/Lewis County Master Recycler Composter volunteers invite you to attend a basic composting class. There will be an opportunity to ask questions about your own composting challenges as well. Participants who call (360)740-1216 and pre-register by 5 p.m. Sept. 9, will have a free compost bin reserved for them. (One bin per family please.)
Make your own boat and test out its sea-worthiness in our fountain! Younger children will enjoy testing objects at our sink or float station.
Bring a favorite stuffed toy for a sleepover at the library, arrive by 5:30 p.m. Tuck your friend in and say goodnight. Come back the next day after 10:00 a.m. to pick up your friend and find out what mischief everyone got into during their night at the library. Photos will be posted on the Chehalis Timberland Library Facebook page. This is an early learning program. For children ages 3-11.
