Wake Up TriCounties Barbara Love Retiring

Long time Kewanee Library Director Barbara Love has announced her retirement. Barbara will be stepping away at the end of July following a terrific tenure at the head of the library. In her time, Barbara led the way to modernizing the library, embracing social media, and creating as much community engagement as possible via various library programs. Her leadership at the library and as a volunteer with various other community projects has been invaluable to the entire community. On Wednesday, July 20th, at 2 Pm, the public is invited to wish Barbara Love well on her retirement and indulge in her love of outer space exploration. The Popular Astronomy Club of the Quad Cities will be on hand for a presentation that will include a solar filtered telescope and lessons on Solar Flares, Meteors and more. It's a favorite topic of Barbara's and following the presentation from 3 Pm to 6 Pm you can stay and mingle and thank Barbara while enjoying refreshments and taking part in space activities and crafts.
