Thank You to all the painters and especially to our painting leader, Peggy, who taught three Paint classes this summer. We couldn't do it without Peggy! The Library had two adult Paint N Sips and one Teen Paint N Pizza. See the photos for all the finished masterpieces.

The lake remains closed due to the ongoing algal bloom. Following the recommendations from the Missouri Conservation Department (MDC), we are working to treat the lake by adding a blue dye. This helps reduce sunlight penetration, which can slow algal growth, especially with the anticipated heat next week. We appreciate your patience as we take these steps to protect the lake and ensure everyone's safety.

We all know that trees provide shade on hot days, exchange oxygen for carbon dioxide in our air, and provide a home to a diversity of fauna; but did you know that their roots are magical underground sponges that help retain and promote the infiltration of stormwater keeping our streets and homes safer from flood events. #SWPPP #washmo #waterwisewednesday #savetheurbanforest
