The Friends of the Franklin County Public Libraries (FFCPL) invite families from across the region to enjoy a fun Story Time event at the Carrabelle Branch Library. This special program is scheduled for Tuesday, November 12, at 3:30 PM, at the Carrabelle Branch, 311 St. James Avenue (Hwy 98), Carrabelle, FL. These programs are free and open to the public, with no library card required!
The Carrabelle Story Time event will feature the children’s book “The Runaway Pumpkin” by Kevin Lewis. In this book, the Buck, Billy and Lil Baxter find a wonderful pumpkin, but first they must catch up with it when it rolls down the hill. After the book is read, the young visitors will play a themed game: Pumpkin Bowling. The Story Time programs are filled with engaging storytelling, games, and crafts, providing a time of fun to ignite a love for reading in young minds. The whole family is invited to participate in the activities, which are designed to build pre-reading skills and encourage social interaction in a relaxed atmosphere. This event is best suited for those 2-6 years old.
This event is just one of many in the Fall Program Series sponsored by the FFCPL. In addition to the Story Time events, the Franklin County Public Libraries will be bustling with activities for children and adults for this series. Regular programs will continue as scheduled, including the Eastpoint Book Chat on the 1st Tuesday at 1:30 pm, the Carrabelle Book Chat on the 1st Friday at 1:30 pm, the Eastpoint Writer’s Forum on the 3rd Wednesday at 1:00 pm, and Tech Help on the 4th Tuesday at 1:00 pm at both branches.
The Fall Program Series is the perfect opportunity for families to connect, learn, and explore new interests together. The FFCPL is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting the Franklin County Public Libraries in Eastpoint and Carrabelle and offering valuable programs and resources.
