This means that your library is part of a larger statewide initiative that is powering progress and elevating the quality of life in PA. Thank you to the Library Staff, Board, and Foundation, as well as the Peters Township Administration, Council, and Community for their support! Saturday, July 15, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Each summer cyclists gather to conquer the Tour de France, a three-week adventure of dedication, challenges, and achieving personal and team goals. Another group of spinners gather in person and online forums to do the same, but these wheels don't power bicycles. For the over 10,000 participants of last year's Tour de Fleece, the spinning wheels are for making yarn! Members of the Washington Spinners and Weavers will be bringing a little part of the Tour de Fleece, including the animals that host the yarn! See several types of spinning wheels in action and watch the process from fiber to yarn. No registration necessary, just drop in. Please contact the Washington Spinners and Weavers at [email protected] for more information.
