I’m also attaching two of the photos. The first one is our most popular picture, showing Fancy, the little golden dog, with the canvas of Susanné Rose Maestas, of Winlock. She’s wearing the jeans she painted herself.

Mrs Shipp's and Mrs Subject's third grade classes will be taking a walking field trip to the Toledo Library on Friday 5/20. Roxie Phillips will read a story to them, they will tour the History Room and learn about the summer reading program. This will be a first time visit to the library for many and a trip that will hopefully lead to many more visits this summer.
