Walking Group - Fridays at 9:30am

Did you know that the library has been working with OHSU for two years on a walking group study? During the study the group wasn't open to the public but the study is done and we can now welcome everyone at our walking group! Join a cheerful group of walkers for Friday morning strolls. Each walk is usually under an hour and over flat land. Sometimes we go a little long, but more often we go a little short. Typically, our walks start at one of three locations: the library and the surrounding neighborhoods, Tractor Supply parking lot over to and through Garden Lake Park, and Lynx Hollow Park and the beautiful paths there. Email Nick to get on the group email list and learn the location of the next walk and any weather-related or other location changes.

Chair Yoga - Mondays 8:55am - 9:55am **time change!**

Please bring 2 beach towels to help support some of our yoga activities.

No Chair Yoga on 9/1. The library will be closed for Labor Day.

Chair Yoga, hosted by the amazing Deanna Hoover. Chair Yoga features 20 minutes of yoga in a chair, 20 minutes standing with a chair for support, and 20 minutes of light mat yoga. Please bring your own mat and two yoga blocks if you have them. 

The first Monday of the month, we will have coffee and tea available for people to sit down and chat with Deanna and others from the yoga group.

Coffee and Books - Tuesdays at 11:00am *Now with more Coffee!

Join us every Tuesday morning at 11am for coffee and books at our book club. No need to stress about finding the book club book and staying on pace with everyone else. Read what you want at your own speed and share with us when you are ready. Everyone who comes talks about the books they are reading or have recently finished. No pressure to share if you just want to join us to get ideas about new books to read.

Every Saturday at 11, our local knitting expert, Sandra, is at the library. She can help with pretty much any knitting question you might have, or you can  come in, hang out and work on a project!
